Hi,
I'm using Avast since 2012 and encountered never problems, until now ...
In the last two weeks my PC works OK directly after rebooting. After some four hours the network access slows down. Thunderbird
takes a while when switching folders and Chrome needs needs a long time (there are even some time-outs) for accessing secure
websites. An Avast process is on top of the task list - CPU wise - of the task manager, ist takes 15% - 20% CPU.
The system is a XEON 3, 16GB RAM and Win8.1 64 Prof.
After uninstalling Avast my system runs OK. I did the update to version 18.3.2333 today, but to no avail.
Has somebody similar problems and/or any help for me?
Regards, Hans
