    AVAST! DeepScreen analyzing BSOD


    On my Windows 7 Ultimate x64 machine avast! is causing BSOD when opening an EXE file that was not opened before (eg. portable apps from my USB stick). I get the notification that DeepScreen is analyzing the file and after 3 seconds BSOD! So every time I download and run an EXE I get BSOD. But after I restart the computer, run the EXE again avast! does not analyze the file again (fortunately) and everything is fine. But on my Windows XP Professional SP3 machine avast! runs fine. No BSODs. Any ideas? Feedback is much appreciated.

    Did you uninstall Microsoft Security Essentials before you installed Avast?


    Download AVAST Software Uninstall Utility
    Special Note: Needs to be started from Safe Mode, the program will offer to reboot you into Safe Mode on launch. If you did not install the Avast product to the default install location, you need to point to it in the box.



    Next, scan your machine with ESET OnlineScan[/b]
    1. Hold down Control and click on the following link to open ESET OnlineScan in a new window.
      ESET OnlineScan
    2. Click the button.
    3. For alternate browsers only: (Microsoft Internet Explorer users can skip these steps)
      1. Click on to download the ESET Smart Installer. Save it to your desktop.
      2. Double click on the icon on your desktop.
    4. Check
    5. Click the button.
    6. Accept any security warnings from your browser.
    7. Check
    8. Push the Start button.
    9. ESET will then download updates for itself, install itself, and begin scanning your computer. Please be patient as this can take some time.
    10. When the scan completes, push
    11. Push , and save the file to your desktop using a unique name, such as ESETScan. Include the contents of this report in your next reply.
    12. Push the button.
    13. Push
