Trend Micro Pc-Cillin 2007

jon2432

Any one using the above software. They just gave me a free upgrade from 2006 because of problems on my pc.

This ones even worse. Theres a file "PcScnSrv.exe" that clashes with spybot. If you try and run them both the file causes huge processor loading. Slowing things right down.

Their help & support desk is good but insist that you delete spybot and any other 3rd party spyware progs.

I like spybot and would like to keep it.

Any one know if theres a workaround to the problem?

Thanks

Does this sound familar;

Trend Micro Internet Security Suite 2007 (which many refer to as PC-cillin 2007) appears to be causing performance problems for many. This is particularly perplexing as previous versions of Trend Micro PC-cillin, notably the 2006 and 2005 versions, were applauded for their streamlined performance. The culprit in the 2007 version appears to lie in 'PcScnSrv.exe', a component of the suite that many claim is consuming 97% to 100% of cpu utilization and anywhere from 50-70 Mb of RAM. The result: programs are hanging, websites timeout, and the system runs so slowly it's difficult to even shutdown.
The solution: uninstall the 2007 version, reboot the system and then reinstall the 2006 version using the license key from the *2007* version. This will get you another year of updates and buy some time until Trend Micro resolves the performance issues. Rumor has it, a patch is in the works for sometime in January.
