Strange,... a 3 kb animation shouldn't take more then 1 second to open! :s
Especially if you are having 1 GB ram!
I have tested avast 4.6 beta the following way:
- flash websites with big animations and gif animations on it
- large download of demo of doom3 (app. 461 MB)
- upload of files through FTP
- general websearching with Firefox and IE
- Windows update (slow update but this was due to M$ servers I later found out)
- Email send and receive with Thunderbird
- mIRC/MSN chatting
- Webshield test with *.pif and *.jpg rule (*.jpg now removed off course)
- Webshield test by visiting a XXX-rated website which contains lots of dialers! Avast! alerted me every 5 seconds for xxxToolbar and other trash (
simply to test the software guys!)
I did not found anything unusual.
Avast! Home Edition 4.6 is now running for about 1 hour and 36 minutes now and has scanned 3608 files.
I do not know if that is unusual or not.
