i noticed something very very strange ... erasing files (e.g. using Total Commander) is way way slower in this build ...

Strange... does avast! icon spin during that?
Does it help to stop any of the shields?

I can't bear this any longer.I am referingto WebRep.
Sonetimes it works sometimes it dosen't
Sometimes it green,sometimes it's grey
sometimes it works with IE and sometines with Firefox and sometimes with Firefox and not IE.
How many times have we been told its the server and will be fixed shortly.
My patience is exhausted.I have uninstalled it.
It should be taken out of the Avast program until it is fixed.
This is nowhere near RC.
Come on boys get it fixed
Thank you

I deceided to give it another go.
Installed from scratch
Works perfectly on XP with FF RC2
But on W7 with FF RC 2 the  green icon is present on navigation bar  but it is not present when searching sites.

The program will tell you to renew the (still free!!) license. ;)

I updated my sisters' windows vista ultimate 64 computer yesterday from version 5xxx to version 6.0.1000 via GUI and my surprise is that Windows Vista took about 3 minutes to start.

I uninstalled 6.0.1000 with the current Avast uninstaller and then installed 6.0.1035 from scratch and the same problem continues... any one else having the same issue?

Update via GUI did not go well on my w7 64 bit machine.

windows wouldn't load after update/restart.

Repaired to last known good config.

Avast real time shields stopped and not acessible.

Uninstalled avast in Safe Mode.

Back to 6.0.1000 now.

(Webrep didn't uninstall from IE9 using program uninstaller or asw6clear).

I had that issue with the last few releases of v5 then to v6. For some reason updating Avast via the GUI seems to be hit or miss on Windows 7 x64, various shields sometimes don't work after the update. I had to uninstall Avast and reinstall the updated versions fresh and all the shields would work. Hopefully this is not a trend. Also I would like to see the settings kept from the previous version when upgrading via the GUI. For example I don't have webrep or the gadget installed and don't want them installed if I upgrade to a new version via the GUI.

I create a system image before I upgrade Avast now, I don't take any chances.

this is definately one of the longest pre-release periods.. the stable version can't come soon enough.

I'm running Windows 7 x64, yesterday using this build I had a BSOD relating to the file aswSP.sys (I think).  I say I think, because I only had a quick time to look at the file name before the system automatically restarted.  Of course, since the crash log was sent away to Microsoft and automatically deleted I can't check! This is the first every BSOD I have had since running Windows 7 (ever since it came out).

On a separate enquiry, I was wondering whether there is any use in Avast for the AVX instruction set on the new Intel Sandy Bridge CPU's and the upcoming AMD Bulldozer CPU's, and the FMA4, XOP, and CVT16 instructions sets which are also coming in with the AMD Bulldozer CPU's (Intel does not support FMA4, XOP, or CVT16).

Hello,

Avast! each new version is very surprising to me, now increasingly lighter and with new features.
