Hi there to all, i'm new.
My problem, as the object says, is when i startup windows and login, avast takes long time lo load showing a red circle in the system tray and until this circle doesn't disappear, windows is blocked. Ok, it's not a big problem, i only hav to wait for 25/30 seconds for avast to load, but it's not a good thing anyway. Someone can help me? Someone knows why avast takes so many seconds to load at windows startup?
Thanks in advice! ;)

That's trange... what operating system do you have? How much memory do you have?
Additionally, how many other automatically started program do you have?
-
The operating system is windows 2000 pro SP4, ram 512 MB and the version of avast is the home 4.1.
Other automatically started programs i don't remember exactly at the moment which are, but i'll look a soon as possible. Anyway i noticed this behaviour of avast on other pc, i could say this problem is not rare to see.

Hi, do you have permanent connection to the Internet? I had similar problem when PC was not temporarily connected to cabel modem...

Internet connection is an "always on" connection, HDSL permanent (T1).
There's not a modem, but a router.
