I am still struggling with Avast. It is in my Internet Explorer and won't let me go
online. I have installed and deleted it in safe mode several times. I get online for a short while then it restarts itself and I can only work offline. "Alan Edwards" wrote in message ...

Did you download the latest version of AVAST [4.8.1201], AND did you let it
update itself. While updating, depending upon your connection speed [like a phone line], you may temporarily not be able to load a web page... Once fully updated, AVAST MAY require you shutdown/restart to finish the process. Also, please clarify whether you are attempting to *install and uninstall* while IN Safe Mode... -- MEB http://peoplescounsel.orgfree.com -- _________ "CdLSRN" wrote in message ... | I am still struggling with Avast.

This may (or may not) help:

Since I can't get online, I can't get the utility.

Nor would I. That uninstaller does a pretty good cleanup job [though it
still leaves a few files around]. And uninstalling AVAST in Safe Mode [as indicated elsewhere] does not work all that well {FME}.. -- MEB http://peoplescounsel.orgfree.com -- _________ "Roger Fink" wrote in message ... | This may (or may not) help: | http://www.avast.com/eng/avast-uninstall-utility.html | Now try reinstalling. | | I wouldn't give up on Avast, especially w/ Win98. | | CdLSRN wrote: | I am still struggling with Avast.

Since you are posting here, I think you could reconsider that statement.

I did not have my mail coming through the Avast Virus Scanner, I had continuous
protection and Web protection. I trusted the virus scanner at Cablevision to take care of my mail. Therefore, as I stated early on, I can not get online via Internet Explorer. I can not open and get online with any other ie: Mozilla (which is on my desktop) and I can not click on links. However, for about five minutes today I was able to get online before it re-appeared , and I downloaded the Avast remover utility. I used it in safe mode but I am still in the same condition I was before......I can send and receive e-mails but I can not get online. "Roger Fink" wrote in message ...
