Using Windows XP Home.
Once the machine has booted and I click on my account, when the system tray starts loading the various icons/programs, Avast (with "show details" on) begins scanning a multitude of DLLs and EXEs. After watching this behavior a few times, it appears Avast is scanning the contents of the Start Menu as well as perhaps the associated DLLs.
Is there a way to halt this behavior? I've looked through the various settings, but see no mention of such behavior. This might be some manner of speeding up access to the programs/DLLs later, but I prefer it to act as a true "on-access" scanner.
Thanks, Brian.
