Why don't you disable it, then?


Edit: Settings > Antivirus > Hardened Mode

You must have switched it on as it is off by default.

If you read this topic, RejZoR's description on the effects of and use of the avast! Hardened Mode - http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=142172.msg1032485#msg1032485. You may find it better to switch it to Aggressive mode if you only have it on Moderate.

OK, after a while using the aggressive setting in the Hardened Mode, you can report the findings (in this topic) in comparison to the moderate setting in the Hardened Mode on your system.
