Hello, I updated to the newest version of avast from 1358 or whatever was the previous version. Everything seemed to be running fine. I was doing the normal, running my 3 security programs : avast!, Threatfire 4.7 and PC Tools Firewall 6.0.0.84(Swapped from Outpost),MSN messenger and Steam.
I wen’t to one of my websites I usually go to (Which has known to have some malicious adds slip through sometimes as it is a FREE forum.) and all of the sudden I went to BSOD. I’m pretty sure it wasn’t malware related as I was on a non admin account using FF with noscript and request policy.
This is my first BSOD since using windows 7 64-bit.Mind you, I’m not sure this is at ALL related to avast, It may have been a coincidence, and in this case I’d appreciate it if someone could tell me the actual problem.
When trying to attach the minidump file I get a message saying it is too large,yet It wont accept .rar files or .zip. Is there another way I can send this?
I believe it should work in IE - open the URL ftp://ftp.avast.com/incoming - you won’t see anything there because you don’t have rights to read/list the files - and drop the file there… or that’s what you tried?
Yes It is the very first time it Blue screened since I put Windows 7 64-bit on it (Complete wipe). Like I said, Im not sure it’s directly related to avast… I just found it a bit strange… Also IDK if this helps, But as an addition to my main post I was listening to Itunes Music.
P.S. After the Blue Screen I got a list of the reports from the “problem reporting” pop-up. So I’m pretty sure you are looking at the correct dump file
