Hello guys, today I have updated Avast Free Edition directly via the program (not from scratch).
Then some bugs happened and apparently, just by looking the other forum threads I think that you released a buggy version of your program
First I should describe my configuration :
- Dell Studio 1537
- Windows Vista SP1 32 bits
- Core2Duo T5800 2 GHz
- 3 GB RAM
- ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3400 Series
So here are the symptoms after the update (You should know that I didn't have those symptoms just before the update so don't tell me "you have a virus" please):
- After the windows login phase, when the desktop appears I have 2 errors windows showing and saying that I have a problem with "WLTRYSVC.exe" and another with "bcmwltry.exe".
After those windows I have 2 options:
° Let windows look for a solution online -> lead to nothing
° Close the windows -> the "bcmwltry.exe" error window appears again and again (Actually I can see in the task manager that this process keeps crashing and starting again, so it's normal that the error windows keeps showing [ps: the non-stopping starting/crashing leads to a high usage of CPU and a f**ing high memory leak])
I have to say that in order to fix this problem I had to go the service manager of windows 'services.msc' and turn the named "Dell Wireless WLAN Tray Service" to "manual", because this is the service launching both "WLTRYSVC.EXE" & "bcmwltry.exe".
Those 2 processes are related with the Broadcom drivers of some broadcom hardware.
- The other fact that appeared just after this update is that when I launch the software "WildPackets OmniPeek" (a network monitoring software like Wireshark), I have an error windows pop-up saying that a problem appeared with "ntdll.dll".
It seems that both symptoms are related with something from the OS and the network layer files.
So I hope that those information will help you to fix those problems because it seems that lot of people will suffer from this update.
Cheers.
