SafeZone not very responsive

End of the month so time to pay the bills. Thought I’d give the new SafeZone feature a go, so it launches this desktop all very cool, new and shiny. all a bit much for one Icon. but then. You click the one icon… and nothing… u click again. nothing. not even a hour glass cursor. nothing… I have a pretty decent system and it took about 1 min for the browser to pop up! i was very close to thinking the thing does not even work.

Once its there its all very cool thou. just that long time u sit there… wondering. is this thing working…

Also on a side note. the “Like Avast” button on the paid for Pro version is a bit much guys. also when you maximise avast it STIL cuts off the buttons at the top!

Very strange, as if I open SafeZone it launches the desktop and almost immediately the browser. I don’t have to click the icon.

Please try this : Open the Avast! User Interface and choose : Additional Protection - SafeZone - and click Reset SafeZone.

If that doesn’t help please tell us what Windows version do you use, and if it is 32 or 64 bit. And what other security software you use. I will than notify the SafeZone developer with a link to this topic :slight_smile:

my safezone didn’t work too.

Mine is the same xpsp3, only other security is defensewall which i have removed to try and exactly the same :frowning:

My safe zone works fine…

About the “like” button, They implemented the option to remove it in the beta version and in the next version it will be available.

@Epsi, this is known “problem” for me, but I haven’t noticed the loading time would be so long (only max 6-10sec) – which is still not normal (for fast computers), but I still observe this strange behavior and wait… Was the loading slow from the beginning of your SafeZone using, or worse as the time goes? Thanks.
