    Avast and Chrome

    Question. When Avast Free is installed Chrome takes a second to open but the homepage takes 6-7 seconds to open. IE, Firefox and Opera all open in a second and the homepage pops up a second later. When Bitdefender Free, or AVG Free was installed I never had this problem. Any ideas ?
