I have shut the Auto Updates off from my options within the Avast program.....
However, even though the auto updates are shut off ... when I run the Windows Task Manager, it shows this running all the time:
"aswUpdSv.exe"I use Windows XP Home Ed. and within the "Services" management, there is the option of shutting this off.
I have not messed with this yet for fear of disabling or goofing up my virus protection.
I just hate things running that are not needed.
Thank you and sorry that I didn't explain this in more detail before.
