A thread was created at Wilders concerning a Report that popped up reporting Web Pages scanned. It is listed under Settings>Popups. I have Monthly report checked and I have never seen a report. I did not know it was there. :-[
Any question…?? 
Is this report supposed to pop up automatically once a month because I have never seen it? Over at Wilders a poster said someone with avast just got a report without any interaction on their part.
Yes, if you checked the option to do so.
You can also click below for an on demand report.
Neither do I.
Patience… the particular moment to show is based on the registration time (or license validity start for the paid versions), the value of which is used to compute the 30 days intervals of appearance.
This feature was enabled just now, so it might take another week or two before you see it for the first time (well, if you leave your computer running with somebody logged on even when you’re away, you can certainly miss it, it’s just a popup that disappears after a while).
Hmmm… Maybe another setting in the Popups tab of settings will allow this to be shown forever.
Why “forever”? It’s just some pop up. It could be set with the type of timer already in place for other notifications, or it could have some log that could be either “appended” or “replace” older logs of the same report.
I would not like it to be there forever and I like it the way it is as I can produce a report if I want to.
Until user dismiss the popup (a setting to do that IF the user wishes this) :
I understood that “forever” means the user needs to dismiss it. But that would trigger the opposite request than yours: “why avast is bothering me with this?”.
So, what I am suggesting is the middleground: not just to go away “immediately”, and not to require the user’s intervention to go away, but instead go away after “X” seconds (as other pop ups) AND keep some log/report of it in a text file, with the option for new reports to be either “appended” to old ones or to “replace” older ones. Add a size / date limitation and you’d cover all requests about it :).
I suggest just an option - uncheck by default - for some users like me that do not want to lose the montly report.
Avast Team,
The OP was not about suggestions for the monthly reports, but then we indeed got there, so here is an additional one.
Part of the text seen is colored with red, which is controversial to say the least.
For example:
xxxxx files have been scanned
That text is about information only. When a text is colored, and in particular in red, it usually has the intention to attract the attention of the reader, or to make it easier to read.
My suggestion is to change the color of that text, if not to black, then at least not red.
I’m impressed.
I learn something new every day.
