I also had this issue. I was concerned when I noticed a lot of slow down when navigating folders, it would take a long time to populate the list or render the icons. I checked the File System Shield and noticed nothing was going on.A clean install fixes this. But I'm very disappointed by this bug, since I have a lot of friends and family running Avast too, not they won't be properly protected after this update until I go and clean install for them...
Of course they didn't do it on purpose. But what was all the Beta testing for? Several people said they had this same issue during Beta.It should have been weeded out before release. Rather large oversight.
Hmm.. Indeed this was reported by RejZoR in one of the beta builds but we could never simulate it here. The upgrade path from v4.8 to 5.1 was tested on a number of different systems and we couldn't find a single problem....
hi all, having just read through this thread i decided to check my real time shields & i found that no emails have been scanned since early august.i then took the advice of other posters & did a clean install of 5.1.864 & sent myself an email which was not scanned outbound or inbound. i just wonder if anyone has any idea why this is happening & what i can do to solve itthanksllanedeyrnjack
If it is from early August then it is unrelated to this particular topic. So I suggest you start your own new topic, click the New Topic button here, http://forum.avast.com/index.php?board=2.0.
