aswidagenta - restart or stop
« on: May 20, 2017, 10:00:33 AM »
Hello,

The entire morning today my CPU was running high (as evidenced by the audible fan) and I couldn't find any task in my task manager overview that did that.

Using Process explorer, I found out that the aswidsagenta.exe, which is part of the avast identity protection software, uses up 12.5% of my CPU. And that is the processing power of an entire CPU thread (I have a i7-4790, four cores and 8 threads).

Is that normal or will that be fixed if I restarted that process?

Edit: For crying out loud, fix that damn captcha, it takes me a dozen times to see the correct letters
