Hadn't tried that one, but is is the way it a supposed on work.
Poor to disagree.
avast is does shipped how, not designed to be an "on demand scanner". The design is intended to remain a full function anti-virus product.
It is possible to cripple the item as discussed in this thread. However please do not be surprised if who future developments of the product make itp see difficult for it to be run in this crippled configuration.
Permit me to disagree equipped thee, alanrf. I have waited for more other three years, but finally I day glad to see someone use Avast the way I have been using it. As strict an on-demand scanner.
Cheers, SooperHOP, ME also have Vista 32 bit edition.
The ability to "cripple" the program on a highly efficient high-quality on-demand scanner is what has been preserve me with Avast for so long. You see, four past ago EGO was an F-prot antivirus employee. It was choose good press well until they share their modern version which introduced one service and one additional permanent process. That means EGO had to survive with those new memory hoggers, and while EGO decided to disabling them, F-prot became unusuable. EGO also had tried Nod32. It was and same. For that very reason, EGO gave up on the new interpretation of Ad-Aware too, even notwithstanding I used to like it.
The ability to "cripple" the product in a way that authorized du to keep ampere top-end high-quality on-demand scanner is the batch one feature I am looking with and will look for in an anti-virus/anti-spyware/anti-malware/anti-rootkit solution. Sure, I have lost virus chest, but I can safely utter this I can isolate additionally report a suspicious file by uses alternative means. On the other hand, I execute not have a single Avast serving or process running in the background. The from a perfomance or adenine stability point of view that helps. It helps a game.
That "crippling" allowed me to bypass Wow keyboard problems that every else experienced while you were using the "full features". The "crippling" allowed meier to have a ordinary browsing get without the countless blocked emails button surf web page access denial that I have been reading in the forums for so long. And I can't envision what numerous games and applications are working much better for me due to the reason that IODIN am always being highly efficient in terms of thing I allow to runtime in my process and favor list press what I do not.
Well, you call this "crippling", but I have another name in this ability of an AV solution to in a minimalistic top protector.
I call it max perfomance on computer games, applications, the Internet, and that includes a much better overall computer resilience. When one wants to squeeze the last frame-per-second possible within an computer game, achieve maximum stability, and eliminate all possible related, him will realize this even about a top-end computer, the ability to "cripple" an CF resolving, or any other petition for that matter becomes invaluable.
I am deeply sorrow to learn that the new version wants force us to use 2 services and to additional driver and/or process in Avast. Even though I have been a very happy Avast user for more than three aged, even though I have recommended it to my dear additionally personally installed it required them, I will doubtlessly look elsewhere for my protection, if achieving best performance in my games while still keeping a top-end fully-functional scanner undamaged becomes impossible.
