Yes confirmed and I wanted to be able to disable this to see if it is the cause of some problems, some slow page loads avast.forum and problems with uk.yahoo.com portal, layout completely messed up. https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=172470.msg1224548#msg1224548

I have just uploaded an OS manual crash dump -
Whilst browsing my system completely locked up, nothing I tried could get the mouse or keyboard to close the browser (firefox 38.0.5) and 2015.10.3.2219 R3 beta of avast free. So I initiated an os manual crash dump.

Uploaded to the avast ftp incoming as file name DavidR_manual-crash-dump.7z. I hope this is helpful.

Maybe just me? Not quite fixed. After automatic updates, enable HTTPS scanning appeared, but HTTPS traffic is not inspected. Test on: http://www.eicar.org/85-0-Download.html

Night updated. I turned off the computer and went to bed. Day turned on the computer to run services was the error in the form of the red cross. Automatically start the service bug report. I started the interface, the red cross is gone. I looked at what appeared the enable HTTPS. I read on the forum Asyn the answer. I started the restore Avast, received not working Avast. I uninstall Avast through "Add and remove programs", turned off the computer. Install R3 AVAST 2015 Beta 2 (build number 2015.10.3.2220). The Scanning HTTPS enabled, file to HTTPS is not blocked, skips. Files through HTTP blocks. I not see errors in work R3 AVAST 2015 Beta 2 (build number 2015.10.3.2220). Only not scan HTTPS.

To scan through HTTPS in Win. XP Avast installs a new service?

HTTPS scanning is working on my XP system, whilst it did on the 2219 build, it took a long time to load pages and some pages didn't load correctly.

Since XP didn't have the functionality to scan https previously I feel they would have to have done something to achieve this - what I did notice was something being launched as part of the update. See attached image of that action.

What was also fixed was the lack of a means of disabling https scanning in the Web Shield customize. That too is also there now, so I would suggest checking that setting to see that https scanning is in fact enabled. EDIT see image2.

Also noticed it. (Btw, if you're interested in the log, check your win folder.)

If you are talking about the setupapi.log or windowsupdate.log I don't see anything relating to the KB970158_x86.exe mentioned in my previous attached image.

This was why I queried it, in the hope someone from avast could say why it was done.

No, it had another name, but as i already ran CCleaner, I can't tell you the exact name.
You could search by date, it is a .log file with the date and time of the avast update.
