Since the upgrade to Version 7 .0.1.4 my computer behave funny. Virtual
memory low warning is a common occurence.

Am I alone or what ?? I always like this product but now they better put
their act together.

Version 7 first wanted my other antivirus programs removed and then
caused system freezes.

I've already installed it on four computers and haven't had any
problem at all.
 
www.avast.com its free all you have to do is register it

I installed their AV for the first time yesterday, and so far it's
working nice.

Not to be a nitpick, but avast needs to do a better job proofreading
their webpages. I noticed several grammar mistakes while checking them out.
 
They have received a few reports of excessive virtual memory consumption
(one report was from me!)
and they are looking into it. In the meantime if your VM gets out of hand,
what you can do is kill the process CAVTRAY.exe and all of it's child
processes with a tool like process explorer from:

http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/procexp.shtml

or just don't bother letting CAVTRAY.exe run at all (I removed it from the
startup list in the registry using another tool from the above site -
autoruns

I am waiting for CA to fix this problem too... but in the meantime, I can do
without the tray application; if I need it for anything, I can just manually
run cavtray.exe

a bit of a bother, but otherwise the product works extremely well IMHO

I have no prblems to report with EZ AV version 7.0.1.4, working fine on my
laptop, I have never had a major problem with a CA product working, minor
glitches over the years which were quickly addressed and corrected. Simply
the best I have ever used.

I was just advised by CA that they have found the memory leak and will be
releasing 7.0.2 ASAP
