Has anyone ever seen a major CPU resource usage tied up using AVG?  I have noticed it since I downloaded the free version a couple of months ago.  My scheduled scans don't happen until I am sleeping so the scanning can't be a problem.

Never mind.  I found out what was hogging my CPU and it wasn't AVG.

i've used AVG since version 2.  have never had any problems with it.  it takes along time to scan my pc, almost 2 hours, but i have found this is true with other virus programs also.

Hey,  I found my issue was because of a program that was running in the background.  I scheduled it to run to analyize data in the wee early morning hours but it was doing it during my normal operational time.  I suspended the program and all is good now.  I was not AVG at all.

Yea, it was some software program I was running to analyize incoming information that was slowing the PC down.
