Uninstalled avast

General Topics
1

Hi
I have been using avast home for 2 years and have been using avast professinal for a while.

I have to keep on uninstalling and reinstalling avast to keep Script Blocker working, have to do this every 2 to 3 days as this is the only thing that seems to work.

I have tried everything else.

Sadly i will no longer be using Avast.

Wish all of you on the forum all the best.

Cheers and bye.

Since the script blocker is working for anyone else, it is more likely a problem with your system/browser.
Why not try to solve?

Hi Eddy

I have tried to solve it .
I have posted with the problem on the forum.

Anyway i can’t keep on uninstalling avast all the time , so i have already installed a new virus scanner.

Cheers.

That is sad!Could you at least tell us which browser you are using?BTW there are a lot of programs out there with script blocking feature(like MS Antispyware) that you can use with avast!

Hi darth.mikey

I mainly use firefox, Yes i know this doesn’t work with script blocker.
I do use IE sometimes, My wife uses IE all the time.

I have MS Antispyware installed.

Bottom line paid for professional version, script blocker worked fine then it just keeps stopping.
Also i have seen some people expressing concern about VPS updates etc.
As a result i have chosen to not use AVAST for know and in the future if i decide to go back to using AVAST i will only use the home version as i won’t pay for the professional version again.

Cheers

I also use the pro version and use mozilla suite and the script blocker doesn’t work fo me either so i understand you completely.I’m sorry you are leaving avast but check back here in a month or two when hopefully this issue(and others) is resolved!

Good Luck,

Mikey

Hi Tech
I checked out the link but i don’t think i put my point across very well.

I know firefox dose not work with Script Blocker and this is not a problem.

The problem is if i am using IE every 2 to 3 days Script Blocker stops counting any sites i have visited.
I stop getting up the flash with Avast scriptblocker when i go to IE
And the only way i can get it to work again is to Reinstall Avast.

That was one of the reasons i bought the professional version of Avast for the Script blocker for when i but mainly for my wife who will only use IExplorer.

I have tried to find out why Script blocker stops working as i don’t get any errors and the provider says Script Blocker is running even when it stops working.

Cheers

Roo, I understand you have a problem. Sorry I’m not able to correct it.
I’ve post my own ‘problem’ here: http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=15353.0
