i need some help for avast 7

i have avast 7 paid and my pc win 7 32-bit. first with avast 6 every time it update i voice said avast is updated or sometime but with 7 it doesnt do that anymore or scan also. last time it found a virus it was 3/18/2012 since then it has not found anything more and i am happy but sometime i think maybe avast maybe not working right? what other program can i get to combo with avast 7 that wont effect avast?? i am asking b/c i am not a computer expert and you guys know more than me. there alot new things avast 7 has so i dont know dont touch it b/c i am afraid i will mess avast up.

I suggest running a repair of avast via programs and features first to see if that cures your updating issue, as for a good program to run alongside of avast then that would be Malwarebytes - you can either run the free version or the paid for realtime protection and auto updates ( lifetime license about $25-$30 )

i did the repair and thanks for telling me about Malwarebytes

Your welcome :slight_smile:

does avast work with aol desktop brower also??

As far as i know AOL is just a search engine ( not a browser ) so yes avast will work.

Thanks for useful information about combination with Malwarebytes! I was wondering that.

ok does any 1 have ccleaner because mine in applications under utilities it says avast 6 but i have 7 and also says avg anti virus 2012 wtf??

Well ccleaner doesn’t have any routines for avast7 and it is in the same location as avast6 would be so to all intents and purposes ccleaner couldn’t tell. What I will say is don’t allow ccleaner to clean any avast locations (logs or temp).

Where is it saying you have avg 2012 ?
Have you ever had and or how did you get rid of avg 2012 ?

The ccleaner in the Applications tab lists many programs that you may or many not have installed.

i had avg before but i uninstall long ago also avast 7 doest have the voice like avast 6 why not

Uninstall can on occasion leave remnants:
See http://singularlabs.com/uninstallers/security-software/, this has a collection of manufactures removal tools, so that should remove any remnants, registry, etc.

I don’t know why your system doesn’t have the voice, it should be the same, it is on mine. Or are you saying you have a different voice or no voice at all ?

no voice at all

Check your sound setup as some sound drivers (Realtek) have separate sound equalisers/settings and the one for avast may be muted.

There are a few topics on avast sounds not working, you could try the forum search and see if they also give any information.

thanks avg is gone and still trying to fix voice :frowning:

so i can i get sound and pop up to work again in win 7 32-bit for avast 7?

Have you tried the forum search and checked that avast isn’t muted in the sound driver ?

Other than that I’m at a bit of a loss as the avast sounds work on my win7 32bit netbook.

Hi Vegeta
I have a friend using Avast in Danish language. She doesn’t get any voice.
If you are nor running Avast in English, please try and change to English language.
