Well, I hope we get this issue fixed before Avast 6 goes business.

I have yet to try AIS on any machine so I don’t know what the installation routine looks like, but is it possible to install individual parts (the different shields)? If so, you could try installing each shield individually and testing after each one. It will take a bit of time, but you’d be able to narrow it down to which provider is causing the problem.

I’d be willing to bet it’s either the firewall module or the on-access scanner. Maybe the behavior shield?

I’d be willing to test it to, but I have 8+ year old computers at home and no money to replace them for the foreseeable future and I can’t really mess around that long at work.
