4.7.827 build is freezing my pc for 1-3 seconds constantly

It’s early testing yet, but I disabled the P2P Shield (version 4.7-827) and enabled everything else (the Outlook/Exchange process isn’t running), and everything seems to be back to normal. Of course, it could be wishful thinking, but I suspect that’s where the problem lies.

Yep I can confirm that disabling P2P Shield resolved the problem. But obviously now P2P Shield isn’t running which is not very satisfactory.

As I’ve posted some minutes ago, sometimes, it’s only necessary to exclude some files (or just one) from the application folder (AND NOT THE DOWNLOADED ONES).
For instance, for emule, you can just exclude onlinesig.dat

What does the P2P Shield do? Would the Standard Shield work as a substitute when the files are accessed?

It’s a dedicated resident to scan downloaded and accessed files of P2P application.

If you use the ‘High’ sensitivity to the Standard Shield provider, it will do the same 8)

I prefer to use Stand-by, both of which take a little time to get started, which I don't think is down to avast.

I do not use Stand-by because of the power-consumption.

For instance, for emule, you can just exclude onlinesig.dat

onlinesig.dat ? Does not exist on my PC.

emule Preferences General tab Check the option Enable Online-Signature 8)

A small file named onlinesig.dat will be written in eMule directory. This file has the following format:

[Online status]|[Connected Server]|[IP:port]
[Current Download]|[Current Upload]|[Users on queue]

This information can be send to web space… 8)

I suppose, we are speaking from different this, I’ve definitively no Preferences (see http://rapidshare.de/files/22872660/emule.jpg.html).
