A couple of months ago we upgraded our AVG software from 8.5 to 9, including the email scanner on the server.
Ever since then most of our PCs (all XP SP3) have become very slow (20+ minutes) at booting and loading Outlook. At various times during the day access to network resources is severly compromised.
I have tried unistalling AVG from some PCs and replacing with MS Security Essentials or Avast, and while this appears to help, there is still a major issue with network access.
Local resources are, generally, not causing the problem (CPU and RAM usage is acceptable).
I am contemplating removing AVG from the server to see if this solves the problem, but thought I would see if anyone else has experienced similar issues, or as any suggested solutions.
Many thanks in advance.
