![]() Run the program but do not make any fixes and then post the log results using the "copy & paste" method. ![]() Do not download HJT to the desktop but instead download it into it's own folder on the hard drive. Please download HijackThis from the link below. I would like to suggest you have another problem. ![]() Malware can also get on your computer from USB drives, cd's, dvd's, etc. You do need to have avast running all the time because not all malware comes from the internet connection. all without any problems with avast running all the time. I also have only 1gb of memory and can play games, do photo & graphic work, open multiple windows in 2 browsers at the same time. so it is these what I call non-security/system non-essential applications that should be audited. There are many that set themselves to run on boot when they aren't essential, things like media players, etc. What other programs are running on boot ? RAM is relatively cheap at this time and another 1GB would help, but personally I think you have more than enough for XP. ![]() Your problem is your statement, ( most of time not on the net, hence, no need for protection, not loading Avast conserves memory.) I have highlighted the 'most' relevant word as what you are planning isn't a toggle on and off deal stopping and starting services. It can be disabled by the user.ġGB RAM on an XP system is by no means small, my old system XP Pro with 1GB of RAM, a 1.8ghz athlonXP CPU and I didn't find any real issues. You are finding the avast self-defence module designed to stop malware disabling your protection. Avast is designed as a resident on-access scanner, it isn't designed to be an on-demand scanner and personally I would recommend you leave it that way rather than try to cripple it. ![]()
