There is no u in colorful.

In British English (Oxford English) there is.

Sorry, not everyone speaks 'perfect' American English, btw.

I think this thread is starting to head in a different direction. The initial subject is Avast boot time. Which by the way by my Soluto Avast is taking 72 sec. Not overly bad for the protection I'm getting.

Mine is also just over one minute and I agree with your statement about the protection.  :)

At first I thought the "slow-ness" is because of the specs.. but Bob, according to your sig you have 4gb RAM and I'm guessing you have a decent processor + a good HDD ? Then how can it take so long  ??? Mine used to be high ( the entire boot, not only Avast, but after installing soluto the total boot time ranges from 1:10-1:50 (minutes and seconds  ;D) Avast loads in 20secs(max)

But today I tried soluto on a friend's laptop - it was pretty old, 2gb ram, 2ghz dualcore processor and it had a LOT of applications running at startup, still everything loaded in 1:40 and after delaying some it boots in just 1minute.. He has Avast free 6.0.100 and using windows firewall..

Not hidden, completely gone if you add it to adblock plus, which I do with mist images in signatures, just takes up extra screen space. ;D

Is this what you're talking about?

Is it safe to have this on while accessing sensitive data online? (Chrome gave me a warning saying it can access everything that I have in tabs  :-\)

Yes, that is the sort of thing, but I don't know if this one gives you the option to selectively right click on an image and have it added as a custom blocked item. Rather than from its own list of blocked ad sites, etc. The actual image in a signature wouldn't normally be considers as an ad by these blockers.

So when I right click on the image in the signature (see example image-top), I have a menu item for ABP (AdBlock Plus), selecting that brings up another window (image-bottom), you can either accept that selection, or one of the other options. I generally go for custom as that is just for that single image as some of the other options would be undesirable as they would trap other innocent images/objects, so you have to exercise care.
