Hi.
Once again thnx for a fast reply.
1) Unplug the network cable, wait a few seconds and then try if opening word document is still slow?
It is still slow yes im afraid even with network cable unplugged.
2) Find the avast5.ini file, change the "SBCServerPort" to a different value, save the ini file and restart the ANCS. Then try opening word document to see if it is still slow?
[Do not forget to change the setting back after this test]
I tried changing it to different ports, nothing helped im afraid.
Also another question, do you see the same behaviour when opening .DOC and .DOCX file?
Yes its the same behaviour opening .doc, docx, .rtf, xls or any other document opened by microsoft office 2007.
But if I open a .doc by right clicking and choosing open with Wordpad then there is no problem it opens up right away.
