WebRep has a bug also ,looks like i can't vote for any site on Firefox and IE. Did an uninstall with their tool but still the same.
A fool with an antivirus tool is still a fool.
If you can't convince them, confuse them.
The last thing I want to do is insult you. But it IS on the list.

Everything is A-okay. Auto sandbox seems to be working in a particular manner but it's too early to tell.

Hmmm. I'm getting ready to leave here in a few to do some Avast 6 and Win 7 SP1 installs! If I have any problems with Avast I'll let you know. :P I'm using it on my netbook and it's running fine. :D

i used on a laptop too.

it becomes 100% until the listing of programs is finished then rollback to his normal usage, and after a second opening of the uninstall menu , the peak a 100% is almost no more (just 1sec). what is annoying is to wait almost a minute to use the uninstall window.
