Avast Blocking My External Hard Drive
My Avast demanded to be updated yesterday, so I did. Now when I plug my external hard drive in (a little Maxell portable) nothing comes up and I can't back things up. I assume these two events are connected as there was no trouble till today.
Is there any way to tell Avast to permit it? Or of restoring the earlier Avast? (Though I assume the latter would be risky.)
(Please don't advise installing MSE instead as I had the same trouble with it in the past; that's why I installed Avast in the first place.)

I use up-to-date Avast on W8.1 and don't have this problem. If you right-click the Avast icon in the task tray you'll find the 'Avast Shield Controls' where you can disable it for a period - see if the drive is recognised when Avast is disabled. I suspect it won't make a difference.

My post has vanished!
I said sis went home today and its jolly quiet
Shughy is relieved that the bad weather is over poor boy has been in a right state.
Sorry to hear that Robi and Neti are unwell feel better soon both.
Robi I just bought a good waterproof coat from Cotton Traders. Very light and foldable but genuinely waterproof. There is a fleecey lined one and a mesh lined one.

Ok Neti .I'll make a note to myself in my notebook.By the time December gets here I'll wonder what the note's about . Funnily enough I saw something about it today fast forwarding to the sixties and Princess Margaret and her racy crowd.
Yes,waterproof jackets are the way to go especially after yesterdays deluge.It didn't stop raining here until the early hours so we had more or less 24 hours of constant slosh. I've got a Berghaus waterproof although it's a bit ancient now but keeps me dry if I have to go out in bad weather.Not that I venture out in the rain these days if I can help it.
Mostly used for walking Shaney who was an all weather walkies dog.
It's been lovely today though.Bright and breezy.
You sound better Neti and I hope Robinia's on the mend .
Night all.

Good morning biddies. Seems nice and cool at the moment !
I watched "Wilde" last night with Stephen Fry as Wilde, it was very good. Anyone seen it, it's quite old.
Snap woofy I won't watch upsetting things now especially with animals or kids.
There's quite a bit of damage around the island and some of the beach bars have been seriously damaged. It's all in the DM,fame at last!

According to mexico I am still shaking off the virus. My bronchias are dodgy but lungs are clear. She looked in my eye and said she could see a style inside. Wat rubbish. I've looked and nothing there. She was a bit worried about a warty lump on my arm and wants to see it next week.

Morning or whatever.
Went out for a coffee with Mr N and nipped to Chinese hairdresser opp as it was empty. He did a really good cut and I am pleased, am keeping my darker roots atm as it gives it definition. Must be feeling better as I have stripped the bed right down and steamed it all and replaced with clean mattress cover, clean bedding and all clean pillowcases as I use two pillowcases on each pillow for extra cleanliness .
Now having a cuppa. Hija came home at 3.30am and the cat made a dreadful stink, it was suffocating and when I evicted her she banged and shouted all night.
Anyone want a secondhand cat?

It's been a nice day here too.Quite warm and mainly sunny.
Nothing doing here really.It's all normal for Norfolk.
Hope your back soon eases off Woofy .Back pain is the pits.
I'm off to see the new mexico tomorrow.I'm forced to go because on my last prescription they say I can't have any more meds until I have a review.I only had one recently with my old doctor.
Still I suppose they know what they're doing.
Hope the rest of you are ok .Night all.

Hello all. Woofy I hope back is better, such a pain.
Actually went out for a coffee today which was nice.
Shaney we used to have a review of Meds every year but they seem to have stopped it now, suits me, although with all my failings I have a health review and they check it then. Also have a new mexico, not too sure about her yet! Have been on the phone to DHL for ages ( prime number so very expensice)

Afternoon all...throw the algipan over please...dreary old morning after a lovely weekend and I did my usual trick of overdoing it. I've obviously aggravated the trapped nerve in my elbow and my fingers are numb again. Oh well, I can still stick two fingers up the world. I'm reading a kindle book on body language, haha, no explanation needed for that gesture. I haven't learned a lot yet but I've confirmed some things. I've been a people watcher for years....my case comes up next week.
After much searching for monsoon proof jackets I ordered a red cotton one in the House of Fraser sale instead. I'll stay at home when it rains. Red isn't a colour I've worn much since the seventies but now I'm getting on a bit it's either go beige or go bright.
Hope your new mexico is as nice as mine shaney, I've only been once for a review but regulars tell me he's consistently good.
Hope all ailments improve and the sun isn't lost in the post.

Hello all
It's been a nice day here again .Warm and sunny .I hope it lasts a bit longer.
My new doctor is very nice and she sorted through stuff that I don't need on repeat really such as the cream for my leg ,a bottle of which lasts me ages and stemetil which I only take if I have a dizzy dame moment .I can still have the things that I don't need regularly as and when if I request them though.
That's a total mess up Neti .Why do they think you live in Majorca ?
It sounds nothing like Ibiza ..lol. I hope you get your parcel soon.I'd complain about it and the cost of the phone calls .You can complain to M&S by email or live chat.
The jacket sounds nice Robinia .I like red .You'll need a matching brolly and boots :)
Otherwise ,same old .Hope you're all jogging along .
