I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
I recently installed Avast! 6. The installation completed with no errors, I did a quick scan and rebooted my computer. About a minute after I logged in, something strange happened; moving my mouse cursor over my taskbar would cause my cursor to change into the resizing cursor (vertical line with arrows on both sides) and I couldn't interact with it at all. I then realized that I couldn't interact with anything else either; I couldn't create selection boxes on my desktop, use any of the programs I had running, use Icons, or even open the start menu (not even using the super key), but I could still move my cursor around the screen.
I rebooted in safe mode and uninstalled avast, but when I rebooted again, blue screen of death :'( . I restored my system to an earlier date, and didn't bother to try installing Avast! again. Is this a known issue? What can I do to prevent it from happening again so I can use Avast!?
