err… i think i clearly stated in my initial post… direct quote ↓

… Or → wait !! are u trying to make fun of me !?

no info !!? Like … ?

i mentioned that the problem arised since i updated and installed Avast 9 (2014)
Also, the problem is that → WinDVD ← stopped working because of the above ↑ !!!

And, when i uninstalled Avast the problem goes away and everything turn back to normal as it wos before !!!??

so, what else can i say to make it clear to you that avast build 9.x.x is the cullprit here …
Not 8.x.x but … 9 as in 2014 → a bit premature if u ask me judging by the flood of error/bug reports i want to add!!?

cheers,
