Re: OK guys and gals--avast! related hey jadinolf, you know that I'm a die hard avast fan, but I had to delete the beta. During the latest definition updates it gave one of our laptops a bsod error. I had to do a system restore and un-install the beta. It's not ready for prime time yet, and I think when it does come out of beta, I might wait for the first program update.
Till then I'll use 4.8 on most of my rigs, and MSE on my wife's laptop.

It seemed fine except I never heard "Virus data base has been updated" in a north American accent. 
The beta is now working fine once I established the smtp port.

Not as professional.

The earlier releases were alphas in my opinion.
Good luck with it.
