Are you saying Avast! hits it's avast4.ini file every 4 to 5 seconds? That's what shows on my system monitor.
I wouldn’t be too surprised… but maybe only under Win2K/XP. Under (geriatric ;D) Win98 it behaves differently (the Standard Shield’s are very different).
However, when I terminate Outpost, Avast's activity totally stops.
That is an interesting point (you didn’t say that in the original post). In this case I guess there must be some connection – try e.g. pausing the Standard Shield and/or terminating the whole on-access protection to see if it has any effect…
Thanks
