Hi my fellowship,
I installed Avast via the Google Pack plateform on a Sony Vaio Pentium M Centrino 1.73Ghz, 1.25G RAM with XP SP3 installed.
Ever since, scrolling down my gmail box or watching youtube streaming takes 100% CPU (with either Chrome or Firefox 3.5 browser with no add-ons or safe mode jumping to 80). Avast software is latest version 5.0.178.
Yet I even shut down the mail shield (I dont use outlook), the P2P shield, the IM shield, only the web, files and network shield are running.
Do I need to upgrade something (memory? Windows?...).
What bothers me is that it does not do it after I reboot. And no, Avast is not scanning my laptop every hour.
Any clue please? Thanks!
Maria.
