you are using free...

so, go to Root:\Program Files\Alwil Software\Avast4\DATA

then locate the 'avast4.ini' file...

then right click and choose to open with notepad or wordpad...

then find the line of that .ini file that reads 'ZoneAlarmCompatibility='...

delete the whole line...

close notepad, choose to save changes, and turn the program on and see what happens..of course, follow the given advice to make a copy of the avast4.ini just in case things go whacked...in which case you might even have to boot into safe mode to remove the edited version, rename the original back to avast4.ini, then restart in normal mode....

oh, and obviously turn the program off before you start trying to edit the .ini file....

wondering why

The file they are talking about is the one highlighted in the pic but I can not find the line they are talking about. Search through the file on your computer and see if you can find it. When you click on the file it will open up with note pad. If you find the line just highlight it then got to edit and choose delete

Later Grandpa

OK Guys I've deleted the line...
So how will I know if things are ok or not???

It's me again lol...
Ok I ran a scan and everything seems to be working fine...
Both Apps are up and running
Cheers to you both for your paitience and help...

I thought everything was fine and on computer start up I got the same message, do you think I should remove Zonealarm Firewall and try another?

I've removed it, do you have any other suggestions??

When I do a scan in Spybot there is always these files that I can't get rid of. Two of them is WindowsSecurityCenter... both virusscan and firewalls. I just deselect those two just in case but the other two are called Altnet and *******Products. When I try to get rid of them it says it can't because they may still be in the memory. How do I get rid of these two damn things?
