New build 4.5.498 is out

Avast Free Antivirus / Premium Security
1

Changes from build 497:

  • solved the XML storage problems (hopefully)
  • changes to the packer bomb handling
  • changes in the updater (please everyone be so kind and test that virus DB updating works (even though there is no VPS update available on the servers at the moment…)
  • a new fancy effect in the default Silver skin if you have the translucent effects turned on.

Thanks

Updated to 498.

No problems with the iAvs (or anything else sofar)

But I did noticed something else.
Everytime I booted the system, Avast was waiting for ZA (ZoneAlarm) to start before Avast went active.
Now Avast is running before ZA has loaded fully.
Booted 5 times, every time the same.

Looks good to me :smiley:

Except for the ‘old’ CPU usage, everything ok here (XP SP2) :wink:

Remembering Resident Task Settings now seems to work properly on my Win 98 PC! :slight_smile:

(related to the XML fix?)

Good stuff!

I just happened to notice now that the problem with 16 bit applications or operations has returned with this build by chance, if it’s of any interest. :slight_smile: (I imagine it was with the previous, too… and simply didn’t notice)
