A few days ago I uninstalled Avast by using the menu bar.
Today, I installed the newest version and am still seeing frequent CPU spikes with File Shield enabled. My fans are going like crazy, and it pretty much makes Avast useless.
I checked my log, and system.log has a ton of these entries, pretty much one per minute:
Apr 18 13:45:10 [ComputerName] com.apple.launchd[1] (com.avast.regapp[35889]): Exited with code: 2
In my avastfileshield.log I have a number of these errors:
[err] Wed Apr 18 13:50:26 2012 - av_thread_proc: Req timeouted.
I also have one of these:
[err] Wed Apr 18 13:18:51 2012 - avmaster_send: send() failed. Broken pipe [32]
Anyway, gonna uninstall again. Can’t have my computer constantly freaking out like this. Let me know if I can provide more information or do any debugging steps.
