AVG, or or scanners...

Well i found out a solution ot a regular problem i have.
Many may already know.

Sometimes after connecting to the internet, i have to wait mabe 5 minutes before i can open another program, which has caused many problems.

I turned off avg before connecting, and now programs open without delay.
I read on google newsgroup that norton anti virus caused this problem.

Doed this happen with other anti virus software? Anyone know the cause?

Its annoying most of the time, because, you got to turn it off or just stop it starting up and then connect, then start up after connection. Its just one of those things that gets boring having to do if you want to stay safe.

an antivirus won't do this, but a trojan might.

run spybot search and destroy and ad-aware......

Question.
Do you have Norton previously installed on the machine prior to having AVG?
Tried reinstalling AVG?
