I noticed in last few days that my PC freezes few minutes after turning on. I managed to open Task Manager just before freezing and see it’s probably avast what causes this. Any clues why does it happen?

This looks like a memory leak to me…
Which version of Avast?
Any other security software installed?
Operating system?
Have you ran an Avast repair?
- 17.4.2294
- Malwarebytes Antimalware but I run it just for scans.
- Windows 7 32bit
- No
What is memory leak? Is it more software or hardware problem?
It goes to 1-1,5GB and then back to normal in few seconds. After this computer and avast work fine.
Same issue.
- Latest version 17.4.2294 Avast Pro
- No
- WinXP pro Sp3, 32bit
- Performed Avast Clear and reinstall the off-line version. But PC also freezes (keeps 95 ~ 100% CPU loading )
So disappointed Avast software quality control in 2017.
Many big mistakes from Avast…
Last time was Blue Screen Fault in Win7, 32bit…
What is Avast doing now ??? >:(
Please fix it quickly , or re-post the download link of previous Avast Pro / IS off-line version (all in yr 2016) to us.
For me Avast with Malwarebytes caused heavy system slowdown (no realtime protection from MB). So maybe some incompatibilty? If nothing more help, i would try uninstall Malwarebytes.
Have you tried the latest version of MBAM v 3.1 ???
