NAV update of 9 August 2004 causes BSP to slow down A LOT
 

Hi everyone,

this is my first post on this forum, and this is due to mine looking for explanation why since yesterday, BS player is slowing down A LOT (approx. 45 sec to open a file, and this is so on both my 2 PCs), and also why it sometimes crashes down ("program is not responding) when I get nervous and try to close BS.

I have discovered the cause for all my troubles : Norton Antivirus !!!! :evil:
My laptop, which automatically updated yesterday its NAV virus definitions, drove me mad, but then it was the turn of my standard PC, this morning.

Actually, this is not such a big deal, because the solution is simple : each time you guys wish to open a file with BS, right-click on the right-bottom NAV icon first (if you own NAV, of course), and then choose "disable auto-protection". BS player will open as quickly as usual ! Then you can right-click again and select "enable auto-protection".

I hope, however, that symantec will do something to correct this slowing effect, because it also affects ... Klite !!

GNOUB

It was an earlier virus-definition-update than the one of 9th August that's causing this.
Have a look at this earlier thread!
:wink:

:D Indeed ! Good to see, sometimes that other persons share the same troubles...and find the solution !!

Thanks a lot,

Antivirus programs seems to don't like BSPlayer...
 

Hi to all of you.
Today (16-08-04) I download the 100.810 version of BSPlayer.
During the installation and also, every time I run the BSPlayer, the
system slows down (as you guys describe before) AND I get an error message from my antivirus program.
The antivirus program, is NOT Norton Antivirus, BUT it's McAfee Virus Scan.
For some years, I was using BSPlayer and I was a very happy user...
...BUT I don't think that you expect me to disable my Antivirus program, to be able to run BSPlayer...
...I hope that a solution will be found soon.
:cry:

No need to disable antivirus, just exclude the .exe file from scanning. BSPlayer worked ok since last virus updates.
