  1. Make sure to configure it properly:

    Click Extras in the menu bar and choose &quot;Configuration&quot;. First thing to do is make sure that &quot;Expert Mode&quot; is checked in, and then click all the plus signs on the list of option categories. This is what you should change at each Level:

        * SCANNER

              o Scan: Files = All Files; Scan Process = Uncheck &quot;Allow stopping the scanner&quot; and change priority to low; Additional Settings = All checked in.

                    + Action for concerning files: Switch to &quot;Automatic&quot;; Check in &quot;Copy file to quarantine before action&quot;, Primary Action = Repair, Secondary Action = Delete.

                    + Further actions: You can change the sound if you want, default one is fine.

                    + Archives: All check boxed checked in, Recursion depth = 99.

                    + Exceptions: Leave as is.

                    + Heuristic: Both check boxes should be checked in, change bubble to &quot;High detection level&quot;

              o Report: If you needed to change these settings, you would know. Default is fine.

        * GUARD

              o Scan: Check in the box for &quot;Scan archive&quot;, change the recursion depth to 20, change max. number of file to 99, and Max size to 9999; Files = All Files; Scan mode = Scan when reading and writing.

                    + Action for concerning files: Leave as is.

                    + Exception: Leave as is.

                    + Heuristic: Both check boxes should be checked in, change bubble to &quot;High detection level&quot;

              o Report: If you needed to change these settings, you would know. Default is fine.

        * GENERAL

              o Extended threat categories: This section is really up to you. I personally have them all checked in except for &quot;Games&quot;. If you are unsure, keep the Default values OR check more in and turn them off if you have undesired results.

              o Security: All check boxes checked in.

    Click OK, and you are done with these settings. On the main screen click on Administration, then Scheduler. Right click on Daily Update and select Edit Job. Click next a few times until you see &quot;Display mode&quot;. Switch the mode to invisible and then click Finish. When you get around to doing a scan with this program (Not yet), you will click on &quot;Local Protection&quot; on the main screen, select &quot;Complete system scan&quot;, and then click on Start Scan as Administrator (If this option is not available, then just click Start Scan).

    There are a few tweaks that you can make to Avira in order to make it run a bit better. You can find instructions on the link below...


  2. The program has to be corrupt upon installation.  I would first download via save to your documents. Then uninstall Avira from Germany and reinstall the new download.  And lets hope the problem will go away.

    Most software during installation advise you to close out all windows programs and if you have anything running in the background to exit and then restart after the installation.  This will avoid these kinds of problems or having to reboot.
