Avast Free Antivirus / Premium Security
1

Windows 7 64bit with Internet Security. Outlook locks up comes up with an error have to disable the avast add-in to get in. After a little research I discover this file was updated by avast just before this started. The file is asoutext.dll

Any help…

I have reported this topic to the moderators in the hope of getting it approved - some senior members in the forum will be able to see and respond, but not authorise.

Unfortunately I don’t use Outlook, so I can’t be any practical help.

A clean reinstall should fix it.

  1. Download avast! Internet Security: http://files.avast.com/iavs9x/avast_internet_security_setup.exe
  2. Follow instructions: http://www.avast.com/uninstall-utility (Run this tool for all prior installed avast! versions…!!)
  3. Reinstall avast! with the downloaded installer from point 1.
  4. Reboot.
