I haven’t had this problem yet and I just updated and ran Spybot!! But if Spybot S&D does turn up these files, do we not have Spybot fix them or do we uncheck the files that have Activeskin in them and leave the other entries checked for deletion ???

Thanks for the info.
Did you inform the false positive to Micro Trend company?

I did leave a support mail. No reply from them yet.

Hello, :wink:

A suggestion made on a French forum (that does not solve the problem
but circumvents it):

  • Right-click on the Avast icon (the blue ball @) in the systray.
  • Go in “avast settings”
  • Strip the box “Activate the themes for the simplified user
    interface” (I don’t know if the translation is good for this option in the English interface)

The error message " usiGetSkin failed" should disappear, but you couldn’t apply other skins to your Avast interface (except a very basic skin)
