I'd like to bring this up yet again. I'm on Win7 with a Realtek integrated sound card andI've been using Avast IS for a little over two years now. Over the last year (Not sure why it didn't occur previously) I've had this ghostly issue of media stuttering. I was/am a total scrub when it comes to computers, but did some research. Used a few DPC latency monitors, latencymon and dpclat, and discovered that drivers were likely my issue. After months of trying different driver configurations and frustration with my NDIS and netIO driving latency through the roof, I'd like to believe that the problems presented in this thread are similar to my own. Avast, please do something about this. I love your product and have purchased a 3 year license. I'd hate to have my money wasted and tell people about your issues.
