I would suggest that you try a change of the set-up of avast.
Using windows Add Remove programs, select avast! Anti-Virus, Change/Remove button and Change, from the new window tick the Standard Shield box, click next and follow. You need to be on-line to do this.
If it is already ticked, you will probably need to repair your avast installation. So using windows Add Remove programs, avast! Anti-Virus, Change/Remove button and scroll down to Repair, click next and follow. You need to be on-line to do this.
