Avast pop ups

[Henry]

How do I get rid of Avast pop ups? I've googled it but all of the examples
are not for my version of Avast. My version is 2014.9.0.2013

Thanks, Henry

I think the only way to get rid of them entirely is to pay them money
for the commercial version. If we want it for "free", we have to endure
some of their advertising. It's worth that cost to me, as long as it's
a reasonable amount, which it is.

You can somewhat reduce the time some of the notifications last by
going to Settings | Appearance | Popups.

My version of Avast doesn't have Settings/Appearance/Popups. I found that on
Google.

I think it must. Yours is the same version I'm using, 2014.9.0.2013 .

If the popups are reasonably normal Windows, ClickOff may help. I can
only find
http://www.johanneshuebner.com/quickcms/index.html?de_downloads,2.html
which is in German, but I'm sure it used to be available in English.
(Maybe searching for it on other sites might find an English version -
the above is the one of the author, Johannes Hübner - I always prefer to
go to the original site.)

http://www.johanneshuebner.com/en/clickoff.shtml, sorry! I just couldn't
find the link from Johannes' home page. Of course, the utility can't be
any good - it's only 332k in size.

Henry, open Avast, click on the option wheel at the bottom, now scroll
down the "Gaming Mode" (this is supposed to stop all popup except the
emergeny type) you can also go to "Appearance" and set popup duration
limits.

At one time, you can select which corner the popups would show up at. I
haven't seen that option in many versions lately.

Just rt click on the Avast icon in the tray and select Silent/gaming mode.

True, but then if he decides that he rather set time limits, he will
have to open Avast to do it.

That is good info. Didn't even realize you could set the pop-up parameters.
