How to avoid this alert.

I created an exception and was able to download updates to Orbx Central. Is there a permanent way to keep this from happening?

Hi

You have to create an exception in Avast

Where it says more options then shows a small tub or title at the bottom of the screen, click there and the exception will be created and all will work

If you try to open Central now it won't do what it has to do as it is already blocked and Avast won't show you that alert no more

 

You can do two things

1.- Enter avast exceptions menu and create yourself the exception with all that path or

2.- Reinstall Central and avast will draw again the window then you go to options as explained above and click on create the exception and you're done

 

It happened to me yesterday

 

Cheers
