Hello, please, let me describe my problem ...
After some actualization few days (1 or 2 weeks ago) a problem started to occur in my Windows XP with Avast free (smallest installation).
After OS start when I try to log in, logon process hangs, Explorer.exe doesn't start up to desktop. I must run taskmanager, stop explorer.exe and start it again as a new task.
There is unknown process running: 0d79850e-6a6b-4355-b7c5-e9c8bd81df15.exe (I have tried to reinstall Avast, before reinstallation there was two similar processes). This exe file is located in C:\Program Files\AVAST Software\Avast\setup\emupdate.
My deduction is - any afterlogon update routine stuck?
Did anybody already seen such behavior?
Thanks
