Vista always blocks antivirus

Daniel Lieb · #1 03-01-2007, 06:26 PM

Hello.
I am using Vista Business and I installed the new version of antivirus (today) on my machine as an adminsitrator.
Vista always blocks antivirus from starting. Is there a patch for the new version of antivirus or is a known problem with Vista?

Thank you,
Daniel

Hi Daniel Lieb,

We have an issue with Vista and PCTAV, where Vista does not allow PCTAV to start-up automatically. The developers are currently working on resolving this. For the time being, you will need to manually start PCTAV upon start-up.

Once this is fixed, I will let you know.

I faund a way to get past the problem use this program TweakVista 0.85 and under UAP skip the first one block the next 2, then pick silently succeed and then ask. now your antivirusprogram shuld autostart. worked for me

Is there any other way to get around the problem other than tweak vista?

This issue will be resolved with the next build of PCTAV. A new release may be coming out in roughly 2 weeks. I will let you know once a date has been set.
