Hi all,

I opened up task manager tonight to look at something, and another think caught my eye. My EZAV is only using 1.2MB of ram to run. I guess they get the award for lowest resources.

Now seriously, should I be alarmed, and looking for a problem. It usually uses around 15-17MB of ram.

EZAV is a very light av. It doesn't take much in the resources department to operate.

I agree it is light. But it usually is always around 15-17MB of ram.

Tonight its at 1.2MB.

Why the drop??? Or do they just do that sometimes. I was downloading stuff when that was taken. Should it not have been working harder?? This is where I get lost in PC stuff ::)

Thanks Mike

It should be alright, you might want to try a few eicar tests to make sure that it is active. here (http://www.eicar.org/anti_virus_test_file.htm)
