1197350 2011-04-27 06:28:00 Hi,
Which operating system are you using? You could try downloading a fresh copy of Avast 5 and then uninstall the old copy using revo uninstaller,then reinstall the fresh Avast copy and run it on a boot scan to get the all clear (will take a while).

revo : download.cnet.com

Cheers

Boot is definitely faster (by stop watch).
Programs seem to load faster and word and excel sheets also seem to open and save faster.

I am wondering if one of the many and frequent Avast updates did something un-to-ward ?
Cheers,
