Need Help
I´m running avast 4.1 pro (VPS : 0424-3) on Win XP.
Since the last scan, avast puts several over 4 GB files (i.e. unp16546452) into the Windows\Temp directory
So my question : How can I stop this ?
Hi,
just delete the files:
avast puts them there temporarily when unpacking archives; usually they get deleted after scanning.
Did avast crash or did you cancel the scan ?
did you scan a huge archive (ZIP, RAR, CAB etc…) ?
i have similar problem. in temp files under avast5 folder there were temp files about 16gb yesterday. i deleted them but today there are 14gb temp files again. yesterday i opened an huge iso file, but today i didnt open any extracted files anything else. actually i opened computer and looked tem files directly and saw this. any idea?
Use ccleaner on startup to clean temp directory 
ok, i found the source of problem (actually this is not a problem :))
i use bittorrent to download a big iso file. so i guest avast control this file when download process running. when i disable autostarting bittorrent on bootup, temp folder goes normal.
