I am running Avast 4.8 on Windows Vista. Is there anyway to hide the program to where it runs all the time in the system tray? Right now when I hit the minimize button it takes it to the taskbar, and when I hate the close button, it completely closes the program. Also, I did not see an option to run the program automatically at windows startup. Thanks in advance for the help.
Hi smokin145!
Normally Avast! starts automatically at system startup also it doesn’t close when you press the X-Button (Close-Button).
If Avast! really doesn’t run there is a problem…
-Please check if you see a blue A-icon in the tray
-Open the taskmanager and check if you see Avast!-Processes and services running…

This is the on-demand scanner. It shouldn’t be run all the time… the residents are which should be running.
Do you see the ‘a’ blue icon on system tray? If so, avast is running…
oh, sorry - I’m afraid i misunderstood something :-[
