hi

for some reason i uninstalled avast then installed it again but now the icon in the Taskbar doesnt show or load when i start windows why could this be? the icon comes there when i click C:\Program Files\Alwil Software\Avast4\ashDisp but still goes away once the computer turns off how can i keep the icon there all the time without always clicking the application?

Then another of your security programs is killing it.

What other security based software do you have that might block new startup entries, e.g. Spybot S&D (TeaTimer), AdAware (AdWatch), SpySweeper, Spyware Doctor (StartUpGuard), PrevX, WinPatrol, ProcessGuard, etc. ?

  1. Check the option in the Appearance tab of settings.
    or
  2. Repair your avast installation through Control Panel.
    or
  3. Make a link to ashdisp.exe in your startup folder
    or
  4. Add the path to ashDisp.exe into a value named avast! in the Windows Registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
