holy @#$% avast is @#$%ing bleep!..
im just preemptively assuming that the mods wont let the post be up if that ‘bleeped’ out word is typed…
so i just got avast again -full version- after having gotten rid of the garbage program again for about a year or something , to see if it will be able to scan to find a virus that would be potentially causing my dinput.dll contains an error error which is preventing me from launching most of my programs , and a couple hours after i get it i suddenly get this add on firefox that i never installed or even seen before called unisales or something that’s spamming my browser with adds everywhere , at the time i thought it was an infection so i was like ok good i’ll let avast do it’s boot time scan and everything will be fixed hopefully
so now the next morning i get on and find the dinput.dll error isn’t fixed , and my browser is still being attacked by adds , i take a look in avast’s browser cleanup and find that unisales in the list of add ons in my browser , of course i realize that was the cause of the add problem so i remove it , then go on firefox , and it’s still there , so i remove it from firefox’s add on page , then go back into avast and find it there still as well , thinking it was some left over info that avast is seeing i click to remove it again , and then suddenly the only thing in the add on list left is avast’s shity idk wtf it does add on for firefox , and then i go into firefox again and sure enough EVERYTHING is gone (thankfully my session remained even though session manager was gone now)…
so is there any way to restore the lost add ons or for firefox to remember what it recently had for me to get them all back? i only remember about half of what i had…
(also if anyone knows how to fix this dinput.dll error too that would be @#$%ing great as of course im always the only person in the world to ever have problems like this and none of the few suggestions i did find for registry/dll scaning/fixing programs have worked…)
So you installed avast to see if you had/have malware on your system, but you do not want help with it.
Guess what…
We can’t help you if you don’t listen.
Besides that it was your own decision to remove the add-ons with he BCU.
Don’t blame avast for something you have told it to do.
no you can’t help me because you’re not listening , i don’t have a malware problem , i have an avast problem
i DID NOT tell avast to remove all my browser add ons , it did that by itself , i want remedy now…
You are not reading.
I never said you do (or did) have malware on your system.
I said you wanted to check with avast if you do, which you did and said so yourself.
to see if it will be able to scan to find a virus that would be potentially causing my dinput.dll contains an error error which is preventing me from launching most of my programs
and my browser is still being attacked by adds
That is a very strong indication that you do have malware on your system.
The BCU doesn’t run automatically, it is the user who initiate the scan.
And if it finds something the user has the choice to remove things or not.
If you want help, follow the instructions and attach the logs to your next post.
no you’re the one that’s not reading , if you were you’d realize the answer to those comments were already stated in the original post
so now the next morning i get on and find the dinput.dll error isn’t fixed
meaning that avast didn’t find any viruses that were causing this error = no infection is present

Re-install the good ones and stay away from the bad ones. I'm sure Avast didn't install Unisales on your computer.
Maybe you need to install [url=http://unchecky.com/][b]Unchecky[/b][/url] to help you not install that type of Malware again. :)

No, it only means the error is still there. It doesn't mean that there is no infection. There is no application in the world that can detect/fix everything.
i DID NOT tell avast to remove all my browser add ons , it did that by itself , i want remedy now.......
No, avast did not do that without your permission.
Again, if you want help…
Provide the logs and we will try to help you.
if i could just do that i wouldn’t be complaining here right now , i can’t remember the name of every add on i had i just know i had a lot more than what’s currently occupying my add on page space…
well i didn’t instal that addware either , only appeared out of nowhere a couple hours after i got avast…
fair enough , do you know exactly what the root of the problem is though and how to fix it? cause i already tried everything avast was my last resort in that route…
i missed you asking for logs in the last reply , i tried searching but didn’t come up with anything just tell me real quick how do i get my logs?..
Is this what you’re looking for:
C:\ProgramData\AVAST Software\Avast\log
(ProgramData is a hidden file so you need to make hidden files available in your folder options)
the hell is it gonna let me post now or what?..
ok there , now let’s try again…
sry for taking so long , was busy and had other problems and such…
ok so this should be everything now…
…
…omfg so many god danm problems , why can’t i just upload the text files WHY? fine you wanna impose a limit then spam post incoming…
…ok holy shit nevermind , malware bytes’s log files aren’t text files so they can’t be uploaded , and even though avast is ‘turned off’ it wont let me upload it’s log files either , if i could just get rid of the program then there wouldn’t be any of these problems…
if i could just do that i wouldn't be complaining here right now ,[b] i can't remember the name of every add on[/b] i had i just know i had a lot more than what's currently occupying my add on page space....
if you dont remeber the name you probably wont miss it
