One thing FileMon did show was that AshWebSrv.exe was logging to quite a bit. Interestingly, after I clicked Terminate it allowed me to click Start again, but that did not seem to have any effect on the running processes.įYI: I have been using Process Explorer and FileMon to try to determine the cause of the problem. By the time I checked the On-Access Scanner (I will do this first next time), it showed the process as not running (even though it still was) and the only option was "Terminate" which did not work. Unfortunately, I had already attempted to stop the process using the services.msc and using "Stop On-Access Protection" from the right click menu. I have been using FileMon previously, but did not think of using the "avast! On-Access Scanner" window. I did notice that I should check to see what it is scanning. I attempted to search this forum for a similar case but could not find one. I am not sure what starts this problem, but I am using Firefox typically when it happens and suddenly the sites are somewhat accessible with many not working at all. Every few days the System and ashWebSv.exe process start using about 40-50% CPU each.
