Avira AntiVir free Antivirus program freezes my pc
Hi to all.
Whenever I run a complete scan with the subject program, my pc freezes when scan is about half way finished. Prior to about 4 days ago, the scan always used to run completely..
Also, whenever I go to the following link and click on any topic in the message board my pc freezes. These are the main 2 programs that causes a freeze, but sometimes Internet Explorer freezes up also.
Thanks Centurion, I thought about doing this, will try it and advise.
Well, I tried un-installng and re-installing and I finally got it to work..
I am not fully satisfied with it as I tried many times before it worked ... its like I had to play a trick on it...
Most of these programs can run while you are doing other work on your pc ... Avira used to work this way as well, but this time I had to let it run by itself without doing anything else on the pc.
