Minor but annoying XP startup issue with 4.7.981

Thank you!

With the newest update and your help my system starts up without problems.

Just wanted to report that the Groups-Trick helped for me, too. I had the same problems as the guys here:

  • No icons in tray after avast startup.
  • No spinning avast logo.
  • Startup took about 2 minutes with avast in status “Starting…” in the Services Control Panel.

OS: Microsoft Windows XP Professional, Version 2002, Service Pack2 with recent updates installed

Vlk,

The latest version does indeed improve startup considerably. Only the red slash tray icon for a few seconds with WebClient service set to automatic (normal icon with that service set a manual or disabled) remains when the “delay loading of avast services” option is ticked.

I’d be happy to help… but on Tuesday and Thursday next week (April 24 and 26) it may be difficult to get a lot of time at my computer (especially at times when you may be awake in your part of the world!). Let me know what you’d like, and we’ll work something out schedule-wise.
