I’m back again. I heard a rumour that some of the bugs in Avast 7 had been worked out, so I decided to download a fresh copy to install on my Home XP SP2-3.
Next boot I started receiving the error message “Kernal 32 will not load”. My computer seems to be running but this error continued until I removed Avast 7 from my computer again.
By the way, other symptoms of an Avast 7 install? Mouse locking up, slow performance, general lockups, especially related to updating Avast on the web. I have been seeing these happen on other people’s computers with Avast 7. There seem to be some big compatibility problems with the Avast gui. They go away when Avast 7 is removed. WIndows 7 seems to be faring better with Avast 7.
I hope that you can work these bugs out soon. Thanks for the forum.
