Avast is installed on C which is my system partition where all my programs are installed. I use C and D while D is for data only (not a single program is installed on D)

Also getting some DNS client events ID 1014 that says something like this: Auth.ff.avast.com (or su.ff.avast.com, or ai.ff.avast.com) translation of the name was not completed in the required time. None of the configured DNS servers did respond.
This sounds like something related but really not sure what to do with this. And I'm getting these events on both machines.

Strange, that sounds like a problem with SecureDNS, but that isn't included in Avast Free...

Those DNS event logs always appear during every computer start up while those registry handles leakes always appear when I turn off computer. Looks like avast is trying to connect somewhere after each computer start up. Both of these instances are same for my main PC and laptop.

I used that installer you linked me in this topic and installed only shields (the left column in custom installation).

Nothing, can't open. Server not found.

Do you use a special DNS service like OpenDNS or similar..!?

I don't. Like I said before, this is clean windows 7 installation with only drivers, service pack 1 and few other applications - avast, mozilla, total commander, ccleaner, foobar, utorrent and the kmplayer with cccp codec pack. I didn't install anything else and definitely didn't change anything network/firewall/internet related.

OK, guess that also means you're using a standard HOSTS file, is that correct..?

Not exactly sure what is HOSTS file or how do I know if I'm using it but I guess so if it's a part of windows by default.
