My windows security center keeps on telling me that my Avast is not up to date, yet I when I try to update Avast it tells me that I am running the current version. Should I just use the option in windows security that I will monitor the antivirus program myself?
NO, check your system date particularly the month and year and correct if necessary.
If it is correct do a manual update of avast!
Thank you so much. That totally fixed my problem!
I had that problem with AVG but i moved to Avast and it did that i first but when i updated everything was good. :
Happy to help, which one of the two solutions worked for you?
lol, i bet it was the Update as i don’t see why people don’t check there date and time over a period of time
Changing the date and time. I was on the wrong time zone and my computer thought it was September 17th.

Ahh… i forgot about TimeZone Ow well…
To Daphnej & others :
For those with XP SP2 & its "Security Center", it is best to
select the "Monitor the Antivirus Program myself" setting
based on the pcworld.com article at : www.pcworld.com/
news/article/0,aid,119376,tk,021105a,00.asp .
I think I saw a news item somewhere that Microsoft
"fixed" the "problem" mentioned in the article, but
who knows !?
Thanks for your reply. I haven’t had any problem since resetting my date and time but if the issue pops up again, I would probably just monitor it myself as it seems that Avast updates itself quite regularly.
