I installed Avast 4.6Pro and I had the little blue icons in the systray and the on-access scanner was working great, I scanned the computer and even opened up an untrusting file i knew i had and it caught it. But now after shutting down and booting up the computer I have no on-access scanner or blue icons and I have no clue how to get it back on?
Any Help???

I wonder why all the sudden everyone started to lose their tray icons. Heck,i’m using avast! too and i haven’t lost them.
Any comment from Alwil team?
Yep… My avast! is working perfectly too… ??? Some kind of mystery with icons on others’ pc’s… Aliens… ;D Seriously, it would be interesting to know the answer.
Some time ago there was a rash of these for people who were using SpySweeper had a false positive and it was picking up the avast ashDisp (icon) as LopDotCom and deleting the registry entry hense no icon.
Perhaps we are seeing a repeat of this problem, with another adware/spyware program?
I don’t think this is the case now. My fix tool should fix that problem,but it appears it fixed icons only to one person.
