Please help
Avast is using all the memory and CPU on my laptop.
I have scanned for worms and viruses.
I have updated the anti-virus software.
The (Windows Vista) laptop runs fine until I start the Avast services.
Any advice?
Thanks in advance

Perform a repair of avast.
If that is not solving it, perform a clean installation of avast.
- Uninstall through control panel
- Use https://www.avast.com/uninstall-utility
- Install https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=179855.0
What settings are you using in avast.?
Scanner settings and filesizes can affect the computer resources.
