I must have a nasty virus in my computer. It never warned me, but now when I try to open the avast program to run the virus scan, the program won’t even open! I don;t know what to do! Can anyone help me?!?!
Hi, welcome to the forum.
What operating system is it?
What other security programs are installed?
What other AV was installed on this computer before Avast?
Any other symptoms of computer misbehaviour?
Try a repair of your Avast installation: Control panel> programs and settings >manage programs> Avast select “change”, and then “repair”.
In XP: Control panel>add/remove programs> then as above.
Scheduling the Boot Time Scan, execute (run):
C:\Program Files\ALWIL Software\Avast4\sched.exe /D
