    Ever since the web module was put into the suite, and I click om the tray icon to open the GUI, it has a very distinctive delay that was never there. It is becoming a real pain to have to click on it, to go into the GUI to mark email spam or not.:thumbd:

    I never noticed any difference myself, in all versions I just double click on the tray icon and it takes a few seconds to load the GUI. Nothing seems any different in the suite....

    Found my issue and it wasnt related to Avira. This is such a top notch suite. And the best is yet to come.;)

    Didn't think it was Avira, I am having no troubles here with the Suite, the http scanner is the best I've seen as far as it's impact on browsing, here it's like it's not even there... No slowdowns anyhow... Good news...

    Avira definitely ain't slow, from my basic performance tests its the 2nd fastest so far.

    Needed a bad defragging. I swear you need to defrag Vista every day.

    Very new to me.......I don't have that problem at all. Just having Vista defrag with it's own standard schedule (once a week) and it runs like silk!

    Likewise here. Since the first initial defrag, it has only been showing 2-4% fragmentation daily. I have it set to defrag every Wed at 2am.
