[BUG Candidate] Chrome Crashes on Right Click Menu or Browser Menu due to AVAST

Avast Free Antivirus / Premium Security

I am not sure if anyone is aware of this problem. This is what I’m facing right now. I found a reference on reddit on this as well. Can anyone please advise or check if this is indeed an Avast bug? It would be a shame for me to uninstall Avast so I can use Chrome.

Mine was doing this too, crashing individual pages, particularly when scrolling.

Seems to be fixed…
