** NEW (RC?) PRE-RELEASE REFRESH 6.0.1035 IS HERE **

[dagrev]

Full scan of 124.2 Gig took 42 minutes.  I can't tell there's a slowdown on my scans.  Seems the same to me.

so what with comodo fix?

[Hermite15]

You should solve incompatibility with comodo first. I'm now without firewall so I'm OK but how about the other Comodo users? They will all get BSOD.  

 Solving a conflict with a competitor product might not be a priority >>> did you ask Comodo to do something about it

[Hermite15]

hmm... I'm seeing now that the webrep server has been excluded from the web shield scope

It's already fixed, wait for the next update.

[mattburles]

probably no update today either

I am so sorry to post it here but can somebody help me to hide my Email address here?? 
I actually didn't want to start a new thread to solve this...
I have checked the option in account setting saying HIDE EMAIL ID FROM USER (Sorry I don't remember the exact words) But its still shown to me,.. Any Solution?

You're question shouldn't be posted here, but only you and the moderators can see your email.

OK so I will install comodo back to my system

first full scan is taking too long to complete; it use to take 40 minutes here, now it's already been 52 minutes since I started it and it's not over...

edit: finish with 54 min +  an error on Thunderbird, it was running during the scan but that's happened before with no such error.

If you did a clean install then you wouldn't be benefiting from any previous versions persistent cache, hopefully that would over the next few scans restore the scan speed. Ensure that the Full Scan Performance settings use the 'Speed up scanning by using the persistent cache' and the 'Store data about scanned files in the persistent cache' options.

thanks for the tips ... chances are that I've noticed the existence of the persistence cache since October last year >>> I was talking about a first full scan, I've been through many new installs of Avast 5/6 and yes... I also noticed what happens the next times, ie once the persistence cache has been populated

ps: if needed when I compared 40 to 52', that was comparing two very first full scans following new installs

[mattburles]

this should have not been included in the pre-release information: a few days before the official release.

hasnt it been like 2-3 weeks

@ Logos
I'm sure you did notice, but as far as I'm aware the default Full Scan settings don't gather the data to populate it 'Store data about scanned files in the persistent cache' isn't checked.

[mattburles]

maybe the delay in release is they are adding chrome webrep?

that's forgetting that I changed these settings before launching the full scan... but okay, now I remember that I mentioned using AIS with default settings just after the install... with the exception of the full scan settings ... I should have said that but still that's still comparing apples to apples, as I always do it the same way, check both "create" ...and "use" for further scans.
