Quote From Alexander G Kelly:
Since the new "avast! 5" released, it was such [b]a big NIGHTMARE[/b]. Too many problem occurs, most common one would be the [b]BSOD, shields OFF[/b] (unsecured) problem, [b]updating & registration problem[/b], [b]slow browsing[/b], [b]startup hangs or lagging[/b] (that's many) and so on...Although it's been several months for the new release, it's still in a "baby" stage of development [b](very unstable!!!)[/b], this version still need more time to improve!I don’t like avast! 5 sound & voice at all, the female voice over was freaking ANNOYED to hear, moreover, you can’t change to other sounds via control panel unlike version 4.8, turn it OFF all the time is the best solution!
Check out the forum & found out same problems repeated again & again which mostly cover program install & uninstall constantly (well, not all fellow like this step), repairing, rebooting and so on…although the user there provided some good help, most problems still remain unresolved.
It’s better to seek another AV solution until the stable version of 5!
What a let down! Sorry version 5…
