I checked back just this morning and at the start of Windows it was now a total of 297MB for ashserv.exe.
I haven’t changed anything in the settings for resident protection, at least not that I know of. I have used some big archives that may have been scanned upon opening, but that was 1.3 GB unzipped, 700 MB zipped… and it was after I noticed my comp was starting to slow down. I’ve tried emptying the virus chest but that was only a few MB’s of Swen and MyDoom.

Any suggestions? Cache, folders, settings, anything?

Grtz,
Corné
