Hi,

fyi.
Don't know much about it, but found this article below if you are running AVG antivirus.

Hope it helps, but please let us know if it doesn't to see if others have better solutions. Thanks.

Some games, not to mention so many programs do run in the background permanently. When i installed AVG tune up utilities and saw what was running in the background i was horrified. Besides a bunch of bloatware and programs, Fallout new vegas and 7 days to die were also running in the background. Using the tune up tools, i disabled them (it will start normally when opened by the user). Maybe a similar program to disable it will help you? Also if you do end up purchasing tune up utilities, only do it when they have a 60% off sale. Give them your email address at the checkout then close the window. They would have assumed you got scared off by the price and will almost immediately offer you a discount coupon via email.
