Resolved: How do I get Rid of the Upgrade Screen for Avast 7

Avast Free Antivirus / Premium Security
1

HI I was wondering if someone could help me please. I have installed Avast 7 over avast 6. I upgraded to avast 7 yesterday on my Windows Vista home Basic system. Tonight when I started my computer up and my desktop comes up a black screen popups up with the avast logo telling me that I am almost finished upgrading to Avast 7 and that I need to push the Finish button to continue. So I pushed the finished button and the popup went away. So then I thought I would see if the avast upgrade screen would not come up again so I restarted my computer again and again the upgrade screen for avast 7 came up again and so again I pushed the finished button.

What I would like to now is their anyway for me to get rid of this avast upgrade screen for good.

Thanks and have a great day.

I do not understand the instructions in the link in the forum. Could someone please help me find any easier solution to fix the above issue please.

I am only an intermediate computer user I have no advanced trouble shooting of any kind.
