Just downloaded Soluto to give me more info/suggestions on boot time, and I see that Avast takes much longer to  load than any other application, around 29 secs. Is this about right?
To load fully avast! drivers a lot of others should be running (like network ones...). Soluto seems to be reporting the total time, from start, wait for others, finish... But I'm not sure (technically speaking).

Yes, I think it is. Anyway, I did what essexboy suggested and have Avast load after system services and Soluto then reported Avast took 7 secs to load.

PS - I found Soluto REALLY slowed things down. I've now uninstalled it.

Well, it's a good software but never went out of the beta...
Also, in my country, it is blocked by a online banking plugin (mandatory for a lot of banks).
