If Avast isn't notifying you, then something is broken..
BTW, I don't use Avast so I can't tell you from experience. Maybe it's a bug.
Hope other Avast users give shed some light :)
P.S. From experience, many times reinstalling a softaware can fix many things ;) as you may know.

Yes but still there an option to customize the time to update viruses database (240 minutes = 4 hours by default) so i think it will show me update pop-ups every 4 hours not each second... However it showed me a pop-up today! :)
