Hello everyone. By accident I found out today that I cannot manually scan a file with my AV. Boinc will not lower it\'s processor usage to allow my AV to run. So I tried scanning my comp, same result. Task Manager verifies all this. I have no problems using any other application including high end games. I\'m wondering if my AV Realtime Protection is working? Yes I am using both processors (P4 3.2 HT enabled). I can schedule Boinc not to run for an hour window and do an scheduled scan or temp stop Boinc but wondering about realtime protection. Also, after the Fortran incident I reset, it downloaded properly, enabled 2 processors and everything works fine. But now in my account I see I have 3 comp showing (only own 1). The 2 WU\'s seen to be reporting to my original comp listing. Do I delete the other accounts? Also I expected a doubling of my daily average which has not been the case. Perhaps an account problem? Does anyone have any advice. Thank You Butch Roberts |

Norton worked like advertised for me.....I am not running HT so may be there is a problem on HT enabled boxes and AV programs..... You need to merge the 2 bogus ones into the newest one listed... M7 <b>CPDN, Berkeley's Staff Friends Club ©</b> |

My AV works, it just doesn't work with Boinc 4.5 running using both processors. The symantec window appears, it shows it's scanning, but 5min later it's still scanning my boot sector. I have a total of 560 gig of HDD space and can usually do my whole comp in 20 min. One of the knocks against symantec it's a resource hog. Usually task manager shows it's using upwards to 45 percent of processor.:( |
