The only problem noticed was and still is: Freezing on AVAST 5.0 during Boot-Time-Scan even exactly on the same event now as before:
- the freezing happens when scanning " C:\My Documents\...\Service Pack 1\mFileBagIDE.dll\bag\vc_red.cab
=> *** STOP: 0x0000004D (0x0000162FC,0x000162FC,0x00007DE7,0x00000000)

MS updates are updated !
Avast updates evere day automatically !
CCleaner used regularly already several years !
PC-load in my opinion is at "reasonable level":
- CPU: < 10%
- Memory: < 60% (normally abt 250 MB free)
- Handles ~ 5500
- Threads ~ 350
- Processes ~ 27
- free hard disk space ~ 5 GB (25%)
So far I understand AVAST Boot Time Scan starts at Booting sequence of the machine and files as pictures, documents, music etc. are not yet in any way "active" or loading the PC, but just laying on the hard disk.
Pls. explain how much free memory AVAST Boot Time Scan requires !
The Malware detected by MBAM was a surprise !
- AVAST Full System Scan and Advanced System Care did not detect them !!?
Further advices are mostly appreciated !
