    Hi All, I have noticed something odd about the Win 10 anniversary update and related stuff. When AVG starts a scan it get so far and I get a red box telling me an issue with a file is causing a restart. It was getting boring so I disabled AVG and have not had to restart. Anybody use 3rd party AV software in 10... :-O

        I use Avast on some of the Windows 10 machines and Comodo Internet Security 8.4 and 10 (beta) on some of them (all build 14393 ie. 1607). All work well for me.

          Avira Free has occasionally annoying ad-popups, but has been working well. I tried Avast, but it annoyed me for reasons I don't remember (it was probably the nagging to upgrade.) Sounds to me like you have some corruption. Have you run a chkdsk on the drive?
