Hi Adrien -I don't know which OS you are using, and I haven't tried to uninstall it, but have looked on this Vista machine, and the choice to uninstall is there under programmes and features.
Maybe you've got to stop it from running first. The only other things I can think of are to roll back using system restore, or to contact Avast and ask them how to uninstall.
What happens if you run it to scan your hard drive, doesn't it then inform you of the date of the database used?
Sorry it's such a pain for you - Andy----- Original Message ----- From: "Adrien Collins" <adriencollins22160@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

You can also access Avast from the system tray, and make changes in there, I think that is where you'll find the setting for audio, and for scanning email etc - Andy From: "Adrien Collins" <adriencollins22160@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, April 22, 2009 3:52 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: avast not announcing that it has up-datedHi Andy No I don't see that message, avast works ok on my othercomputer butnot the netbook.

Ihavechecked all the settings, I have played the sounds intheavast folder on my hard drive to see if they work buttheydefinitely don't work within the program itself.Somethingis wrong somewhere, when I first installed it on mynetbook,I had it connected to my other computer via a networkbutIam now using a usb modem and I think this may be the problem. I think it is up-dating ok but I'm not sure.Canyou tell me what's wrong?
