Hi all,
I've been using Avast Home for at least 18 months without problem, in the last 48 hours my laptop has been freezing for a few seconds at the time - monitoring task manager it appears to be Ashserver.exe causing the problem.
IIRC there was a program update a couple of days ago - this appears to be the cause, as nothing else has changed. I've done full system scans for virus (using Avast), and spyware etc using spybot and adaware all of which were clean. Restarting XP (Home) in safe mode and there is no problem.
Ideas please?
