Just to clarify, appears this update allows Comodo’s cmdagent.exe to dial-out from localhost port 12080 and use Avastsvc.exe to connect to the Internet?

Should be in its own topic as Vlk said in the first post of this topic.

However, this is essentially correct as the Web Shield now monitors all HTTP traffic, so it would go through the proxy, controlled by avastSvc.exe.

Thanks. Great work on this update!

@zfactor

same problem as before with wireless icon (yellow ! mark) as in he beta thread on more than one system, fresh install and update same results

its driving me nuts!! just updated 2 other systems and now they have the same problem with the yellow exclamation mark on the wireless icon in the taskbar, so def not just this one system. also ran awsclear with same results.

why has no one mentioned this from avast many people in the beta thread mentioned it and there was not a single response that i saw from avast??? and yet it was released with the same problem??? not cool

I have the same problem
after updating to avast 6.0.1289 and reboot 3 of my computers I get wireless icon yellow ! mark and wired icon yellow ! mark
all 3 computers have windows 7 64bit

Working fine on my Win7x64. No issues.
Script Shield was fine on 1279, works better on 1289.

Tech support already trying to find the firewall bug that effectively lets everything go through despite whatever your settings might be. The error has been repeated on the Avast side, so hold on; there is likely to be another update before long.

Avast 6.1289 7 working perfectly on Windows X64. ;D

[system]

running great and thank you!!

Script shield slows web page loading in IE9. I uninstalled the script shield and all is well again.

Updated from 6.0.1203 > 6.0.1289 over the Update-button in the programm (UI).
It seems that everything is working fine!

Thank you guys, you did a very good job!!! :-*

I lost track of the exact update count over the last two weeks but I think avast! 6.0 is leading Firefox 7.0 Beta ;D ;D

Of course all of this comes in the middle of me installing Chrome 13.x and configuring it up with extensions and what not.

All seems fine though I believe there is still no Script Shield support for Chrome.

Thanks. Now updating…

Edit: Updated from 6.0.1279 beta. So far no problems. 8)

Does the script shield support chrome? I read that it was coming so im wondering if its in this release or if your still working on it.

congrats on new official release, now i hope all the BSOD problems are history

[system]

Everything is a-ok with the Avast Pro version. No problems with Win7 64 running EMET 2.1. Firefox 6.0.1, Aurora, and Nighty 64 work perfectly. Experiencing no issues with Comodo Firewall and Malwarebytes Pro running in real time.

Will Avast autoupdate itself to the new version? Recently, I have installed Avast on multiple computers for my friends and family while at the same time making sure “automatic update” was selected under “programs,” just for these type of version update occasions.

They are set and forget type of users, so can’t I assume they would go out of their way unless a Avast alert told them to. Would be nice to know that I wouldn’t have to intervene to make sure they are optimally protected.
