this one is kinda weird.

I just want to know if anyone else has had this problem.

At some points when playing WarCraft or watching a movie file, The game/movie video would freeze but the sound would play on.

The video freezes for about 3 seconds and the computer sorta plays catch-up with the audio. Sorta like fast forwarding a movie but the sound is unaffected.

I know VirusScan 7 is to blame because if I disable it nothing goes wrong. This hasn't happed before I reformatted.


update: this happens with IE as well.
I'll be scrolling a web page and it would stop and then play catch-up again....ghay

It used to freeze my irc downloading so I had to uninstall it and get panda Antivirus.

i might just give panda a shot

Same here it got a memorey leak make it take 100% of CPU in sometimes its happend to me and to two friends, wonder why they didnt mention about this bug?!

panda sucks,
installed McAfee VS8
does the something


edit: McShield.exe is to blame

this seams weird, but with the scanner disabled i noticed an HP program taking over 50% of CPU usage. I ended the task and turned on the scanner and the problem went away.

I have an HP psc 2410xi photosmart software installed.

McAfee sucks also. Get Norton or Kaspersky.

W h y , W h y to experiment with such bad AV ? ? ?
I just two weeks ago had a problem with Mcafee v4 - It deleted all my customer's e-mail - they just disapear...
Last year I had the same problem with v6...

Put Kaspersky, Norton (for the speed SAV v8) - but it does not check OE mails... and bee wo nerves ;0)

problem solved.

I disabled the 2 HP programs that run at startup. No more 100% cpu usage by McShield. strange, hope HP and McAfee catch on to this bug.

Hmmm you all telling him to use Norton and other programs, Why not try saying, I recommend such and such program...

Now to you Serge, I have had Problems with mcafee 7, I would recommend upgrading to getting mcafee 8 since i have never experienced problems with it.

no offense but.... ^ ^

oh, and yea, I did upgrade to version 8. Same deal, same problem...but none the less solved...HP can kiss my ass......basiclly

Hmmm, HP then I guess, they aint gonna be making money if there having bugs like you had.
