No Notify Avira v3.4 | Advice Corner | Forums

I read about this on gHacks. Sounds like an interesting program considering Avira seems to make their ads popup at the worst times.

That said, avast! doesn't have the same pop ups (at least I have not experienced them yet); food for thought .

At one time I used & liked Avira AntiVir, but it became bossy, not letting programs run even after I confirmed that I wanted them to, or after I had gone into settings & did it there too. Also, it ran when it felt like it & wouldn't close or respond to task manager. It was like a bully , or a stubborn child.

Getting rid of it, uninstalling, was a nightmare (esp before I had Revo) & it took many attempts to delete leftovers, & registry keys, & at times these items would refuse to be deleted--YOU DON'T HAVE PERMISSION, DUDE!!) In fact, years later, there is a grayed-out entry in the control panel, but to left-click on it gets: "application not found," (DUH), but the only 2 options when I right-click, are OPEN, which gets: "application not found," or "create shortcut," (ya, right, just what I need), hence, there is no DELETE!! So it is there, I guess, forever, (unless someone else has an idea).
