Similar problem to fznuk - XP sp3 - since installing Avast free everything is SO SLOW it is driving me mad. Avast using 74% CPU etc - takes several minutes to load, nothing will appear till “AVAST HAS BEEN UPDATED” voice + box pops up!!! Every item takes minutes, the number of times the PAGE UNRESPONSIVE box comes up with choice to Kill Page or Wait - must be running in the hundreds now!!! Tried to phone Avast - voice says will be connected to next agent … 25 mins later gave up. Tried again today… first I got heavy breathing then some heavy voice hard to understand… apparently have to pay £79.99 for them to correct this free Avast !!! What! Seems only option now is to unload it. Not using IE, using Chrome.
