| 1173138 | 2011-01-27 20:36:00 | MSSE v2.0 has a neat new feature where you can dial down how much CPU time it spends scanning. A great feature for older single-core machines. | AvonBill (11358) | ||

| 1173140 | 2011-01-27 21:12:00 | My vote: MSSE Just uninstalled Avast from a friend's machine - it was blocking browser (just browser access, any browser) access to the interweb and installed MSSE. He's as happy as a <insert appropriate superlative here>!! |

| 1173141 | 2011-01-27 21:22:00 | MSSE. I still see very occasionally an XP PC that doesn't like MSSE - very high CPU usage. But it is the superior product. Go for MSSE first, and you will more then likely be fine. | wratterus (105) | ||

The latest version of AVG has that too where you can slide to higher or lower CPU usage . My vote: MSSE Just uninstalled Avast from a friend's machine - it was blocking browser (just browser access, any browser) access to the interweb and installed MSSE . He's as happy as a <insert appropriate superlative here>!! Haven't had this problem, but I only use Google-related browsers and never use IE for anything but M$ Updates . MSSE .

This'll be MY 'puter - betcha! |

Uninstalled Avast and access was restored . Don't know what the problem was, it was late at night and we were just pleased the problem was resolved . |
