avast! Free Antivirus v 6.0.1000 vs Spyware Terminator v 2.8.2.192: error!

Hi, some updates!

I’ve had the same kind of error with Skype! I mean: “Invalid floating point operation.”
It has come to my notice that if the GUI of the software that I’m launching takes too much, suddenly appears this error.
In fact, once closed the Skype (after the error), waiting some seconds, no other programs running (only the “resident” processes), if I launch again Skype and it’s GUI appears in short time I don’t receive any errors! ???

Obviously, it’s the same with Spyware Terminator! So, I don’t think anymore that the problem is in the frame, but in the time that the GUI takes to load.
launching the program (Non risponde) = (Not responding) :wink:

Please, sorry if I use ImageShack to load these images, but otherwise I don’t know how to do.
I sent the memory dump, hoping the file arrived without any corruption.
Have a nice day!

Please, consider http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=19387.msg607589#msg607589

Tech, I considered what you remembered to me in your last post, as just you wrote HERE.
Otherwise, I didn’t write “Please, sorry if I use ImageShack to load these images, but otherwise I don’t know how to do.”.
Please, excuse me, but consider it’s very difficult to me to explain and understand what it’s in a different language from mine (in this occasion: english).
Anyway, I modified all my posts, using another hosting site. I hope now all the users of the forum can see these images.
All the best.

Yes, thanks, now every user could see the images!

Ok! All right now! :slight_smile:
I saw there’s a new beta version (6.0.1035 Beta), I’ll try this as soon as possible.

I think also to take a memory dump when Skype crashes and upload the memory dump (so the Avast! Team could check the differences between my other dump).

A question: I use FileZilla portable to upload the memory dump, but, despite all the changing of its configuration (I checked also the option “Send FTP Keep-alive commands”), I continue to receive (every 15/20 minutes or more time) an error like “Connection closed by the server” (I translated in english the error that I received in italian … sorry! ::)). In your opinion, was the file correctly uploaded?
Thank you!

No way … the problems are still there, indeed … here! :cry:

I’ll try to upload a new memory dump. Ok?

Thanks.

Ok! I’ll do it as soon as possible (may be this night or tomorrow evening).
Anyway, could you please answer this question I posted:

Thank you so much!
markinson

P.S.
I also disabled some services or process using msconfig command, to have a faster system. In fact, the error with Skype is less frequent.
I don’t know … ???

FileZilla always display the success of an uploading.
I suggest you 7-zip the file, split it into parts, upload the parts (like 50Mb for instance).

Here I’m, once again!
Hope everything is good for all of you. :wink:

As we said, I uploaded (on 23 march) the memory dump (after the Skype “crash”). I preferred to upload a single (big) file.
At the end, FileZilla displayed that the uploading was successful. I hope so, too! Today, for example, is it possible to know if it’s right from the Avast! Team?

Something more.
Just today I upgraded to avast! Free Antivirus beta version 6.0.1044.
Since now, I haven’t had any problems launching Skype on my Windows XP Professional O.S…
But, the error still remains about Spyware Terminator … :-\

For now, that’s all.
Cheers!

Which is the file name for them to find it?

The names of the files are:

  • MEMORY_Avast_vs_SpywareTerminator_markinson_20110317.zip (uploaded on 17 of March);
  • MEMORY_Avast_vs_SpywareTerminator_Skype_markinson_20110320.zip (uploaded on 23 of March).

Both files contain, in addition to the memory dump, a readme.txt file (inside this file I indicated the URL of this thread and my Skype account).

Thank you so much Tech! :slight_smile:
All the best!
markinson

Here I am, once again. :wink:
Only to tell you that I have had no more problems, on my Windows XP Professional, using avast! Free Antivirus v 6.0.1289 and Spyware Terminator 2012.
Thank you all.
Cheers.

Thanks for the feedback…! :slight_smile:
