Avast asking me to opec svchost.exe. in sandbox mode!
« on: June 07, 2011, 07:15:31 PM »
Hello. Today when i started my pc i got a window telling me to run file: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Ahead\Lib\NMIndexStoreSvr.exe Opened by C:\Windows\system32\svchost.exe in sandbox mode.
Is that normal? Even if i click ok it still appears after like 30 seconds.

Same problem. Although after I clicked "Open in sandbox" for the first time. The opening process changed from C:\Windows\system32\svchost.exe to C:\Windows\system32\services.exe. I have windows vista. The message keeps popping up. Can't really do anything :(

I don't know about Windows 7 but in which directory is the svchost.exe located???I think it must be in C:/Windows/System32 (This is the directory in which svchost.exe is located in Windows XP)

Same problem happening to a newbie friend of mine on starting her computer yesterday evening first time that day(NZT) right after Avast updated the defs. Operating system XP all latest updates, no previous problems. A careful user.
Is anyone able to help?

 Update FYI. Now 10th June (NZT). Tonight the problem appears to be fixed as her computer started without sandbox alert for the Ahead file.
