Threatfire Slow Down

Hey guys,

When I installed threatfire, my start slowed down by an extra minute. Is this normal? The only other security I have installed is F-Prot and Sandboxie.

Another issue, I've tried posting at the pctools fourm but it says I do not have enough permissions to do so. Does anyone know why?

Cheers
Jeremy

 

Hi

I have ThreatFire and Sandboxie installed and I do not have any slow downs.

 

I'm not sure about the forum issue, but I too have a decent slowdown when using Threatfire. I know others have no problems with it, but I think it secretly hates not being the only security app installed

Well a minute is just too much slow down for me. Are there any diagnostic tools to help me diagnose the problem?

 

I tried doing that, nothing worked. Can someone with access to their forums just askwhy I might be having this issue? My user name is huangker on their forums as well.

 

I PMed djames there. Let,s wait n see.

 

Hi

Is your hard drive fragmented?

 

I have a similar issue with certain Symantec products, like SEP11 for example. Sometimes an app is either too heavy for your system, or sometimes it just conflicts with something else and doesn't like your setup. When that happens, I usually just remove it and try something else, rather than try to figure out what the actual problem might be. It could be pretty hard to nail down, even with help from the devs....

 

Try setting TF at level 5 -- you might be pleasantly surprised.
