You have heuristics, if you have File shield, but as I said, I'm not sure which of those Sf.bin applied to. I'm sure someone here does, though.
All software will use more resources eventually, as time goes on. Especially security software. You can't hide from that forever. Spybot used to be enough, remember?
Even more funny if Pondus is correct and 5.1.885 wasn't official, you are using both an old
and unstable release, twice the reason for you to update.
why did ford stop producing the model T-Ford.... it was working just fine.....4 have and outdated scan engine...lots of malware not detected
the bad guys are testing new malware every day, so to stay on top.....
QFTSo your argument is not appealing to me.
No one here is arguing with you....just stating the fact that sooner or later you must move forward or risk infection and bugs, a pure fact. If 4 worked....why did you update to 5, then, by your logic a bad decision?? (rhetorical question)....to finish, Avast! makes a product for the majority, not people sitting on old hardware expecting computing to stay where it is comfortable and affordable to them, sorry.

btw, your email shows public on the forum
