queenslander 0 Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 The other day a OA Premium pop-up advised me that it had blocked a deleted .exe, that is if a greyed out line still means it has been deleted. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
catprincess 19 Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 Maybe it was a temporary file that was blocked just prior to it being removed? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Barthez 2 Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 avast.setup maybe ? I remember that this component of avast was listed as gray too in my OA Programs tab, but I didn't investigate it deeper so i can't say if is this due some internal avast protection or just avast.setup is created temporally. In your case I think you should allow this file and trust it and then don't delete it from Programs list. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It does sound like it was a temporary file then that was something to do with an Avast signature update and was deleted afterwards. It's highly recommended to completely exclude OA and Avast from each other though, to avoid conflicts which can commonly arise when two security programs are fighting for control Quote Link to post Share on other sites
