I have Avast Home edition since a long time and it worked fine. Since yesterday i don’t have no blue icons, nor can i start ashAvast.exe anymore. 4 avast related services are running. I tried the tricks with the skin for the regestry and the StartWithSkin=0 in the ini file, but nothing helped
I’m running a W2K SP4, and Avast v4.6 (i installed it today).
In the system log is a message saying:
Type gebeurtenis: Fout
Bron van gebeurtenis: TrueVector Service
Categorie van gebeurtenis: Geen

The message is related to ZoneAlarm (True Vector Engine) and not avast!
Anyway, it will be good to repair avast! installation through Control Panel.
If it does not work, maybe uninstall / boot / install again.
You should read the tutorial about ZA & avast togheter (http://www.avast.com/eng/webshield_issues.html) and search the forum.
Tried all of this: uninstall, reboot, install (even without Zonalarm), but problem remains: services are started but can’t start ashAvast.exe nor any of the other Avast exe’s
Is there any way i can trace/debug what is going on ?
I think it will be faster if you uninstall ZoneAlarm, boot, install avast, boot, install ZoneAlarm.
Maybe the setup.log file of avast but it won’t be that easy to find drivers conflict…
