OK here's the deal, I've been using avast for a long time and it's been great, the avast 6 program got the update and everything went smoothly, so no issues with the update. however i use outlook 2010 daily and leave it running pretty much all day every now and then it locks up and goes into not responding the only way i can get it to work again is to disable the avast mail shield and outlook starts working again, after that i re-enable the shield and a couple hours later (sometimes sooner) outlook locks up again, also avast seems to think its getting double the email that is coming in, another thing i notice is that half the emails i get is thrown into the junk folder and the other half i get is nothing but gibberish usually something like ?'s or !'s.
i know that when new software is pushed out there are going to be problems due to the fact that there are different computer and user configurations. i was wondering if avast was going to release a fix and if there's anything i can do on my end.
thanks for any input
BTW, i have a Intel core-i7-quad with 4 gigs of ram and windows 7 ultimate 64-bit service pack 1
