Disabling the update pop up in Avira.

[Mark]

If you're using the Free version of Avira, you'll know that a nagging notifier to upgrade to the premium version pops up every time you update the Avira database.

To disable it simply follow these steps:

For XP and Vista Users:

1. Start-> Control Panel

2. Administrative tools-> Local security policy

3. Click on Software Restriction Policy-> Action (at the top)-> create new restriction policies

4. Right-click additional rules (on the right side)-> new path rule

5. Click Browse and navigate to C:\Program Files\(Avira)\AntiVir Desktop\ and double-click avnotify.exe

6. Set the security level to Disallowed-> apply-> ok

Update: In the new Avira if you install the toolbar you don't get the update popups either.
