    When my computer boots up, windows tells me it does not detect a virus scanner and when I run a security check on symatec website it also says it does not detect a virus scanner.

    Anyone know what would cause this? Avast shows in my system tray.

    I don't know the cause but does Avast update? Can you scan with it?

    Yes, it scans and updates. It even updates automatically.
