I used avast! 4 home edition from 2 months until 2 days.
My PC was running Internet Information Server V5.x + 2002 frontpage server extensions. All right, only 10 simultaneous connections for my family and friends, but we are happy so.
From two months at now my PC crashed with BSOD 0x0000008E for no apparent reason. I replaced Motherboard / Memory and Graphic Card searching for the problem. My joy in a pit!.
Then I found that the error occurred when making a HTTP request at my own machine running IIS. I replace IIS for Apache2, and made a test "
http://machine_name/" and immediately, as usual, blue screen of dead 0x0000007E without driver mention. This can not be happening to me.
Then began the time of old programs:
Zone Alarm was uninstalled and nothing changed
Avast! 4 Home Edition was uninstalled and OH La La!. The crash disappeared!!
The final test: resettlement, new installation of avast! 4 home edition and ... Crash again. OK. Problem identified.
Searching for exact solution I stopped all "Ash..." services from the HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Windows/Current Version/Run register keys and from the services console. Restart Windows with the services Disabled. But nothing, Crash again.
Now, from 2 days at now, my PC is working without antivirus.
Can you help me?
