avast2015 shown as 32bit process in 64bit OS
« on: March 03, 2015, 05:44:34 PM »
hello

I installed avast2015 on 64bit win7 ultimate -- the program runs smoothly

however recently I did some reading about 64bit programs and I noticed that all avast services are shown [both in task manager and process explorer] as 32bit processes though I know the soft is supposed to install as 64bit on such OS -- is this a normal thing? or is there an issue with my installation?
are there any downsides connected with the fact that the soft runs as 32bit under 64bit system?

thanx in advance for some replies
