I am using Avast Free, regularly updated on Win XP. I am using prepaid internet with limited data upload/download. The charges of ISP beyond the data limits are exorbitant.
I tried to create Avast Rescue CD last month. It started downloading 'Toolkit', the download exceeded 360 MB & still the progress bar remained at less than 10%.
Again I tried a few days ago, downloaded more than 400 MB and still the progress bar showed between 12-15%.
In both cases I had to cancel & abort the process as I could not afford to exceed the data limit of my Internet package.
SUGGESTION:
I suggest that Avast give a prior Warning of the approximate size of total data download involved ?. Then, one can decide if one has sufficient data balance available.
QUESTIONS:
-In case of CD, a new UPDATED one has to be created everytime. Will this involve heavy data download everytime I create a new rescue cd?
- Is it possible to use Avast Rescue Image in a Multi-Boot CD ? How ? Which Multi-Boot Software is best ?
