that when my A/V (Avast) is doing an update it slows down this posting lark horrendously for me.That said, it's really good and I wouldn't consider ditching it. It's just that the updates come at daft times. Anyone else have trouble with theirs

I get that at odd times Hoochie, I can cope with that.

Dids! I thought it was a vendetta against me. Glad to know now it's not

I keep the Avast icon in my task bar. (I don't know if you do onetoo.)
If you right click on the icon and then click on "Program Settings" and then on "Update (basic)", you can then select how you want Avast to do its updating.
Hope this helps.
