This morning after I started my computer and it loaded my programs, Avast 4.8 updated the database as usual and stopped spinning.
I checked my email and the news and then around 8:30 I noticed the icon was spinning. I thought at first that one of my programs was updating,but I noticed that there was no internet activity showing on any of my modems and my computer didn't show any activity either. I checked to see if if Malwarebytes or windows defender was running a scan. They weren't. I then blocked all traffic in and out to make sure something was not getting through. I couldn't find any reason for it to keep spinning, so I did a complete uninstall and reinstall in case a file got corrupted, but even after that it still is spinning. So I'm at a loss as to why. By the way, I also shut down Malwarebytes to see if their was a conflict. This is the first time this has happened. Also I'm not running the VRDB. I'd appreciate any help. Thanks.
My OS is Windows 7 Home Premium X64 bit.
