re: Changes to Sevices Monday, August 18, 2008 at 2:31 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Spexx (1951 messages posted) Interesting. The AVG 8 Email scanner continually stopping for no reason was one of the things that led to me ditching AVG and installing Avast instead. As for the Ad-aware service aawservice.exe well I have the free version on my PC and deliberately stop that service, because it serves no useful purpose until you run a scan or download an update. The full version has Ad-watch which uses a device driver nsdriver.sys which is a different thing entirely. Anyways I digress and it does look a bit suspicious. Which anti-malware scans have you run on the PC so far? Are you able to restart those services? Cheers. Spexx.
