Using Flash Drive
Hi,I m using Win7 RC Eva. Copy Build 7100. I hv installed Kaspersky AntiVirus ver. 8.0.0.454.whenever I plug any USB flash memory drive and try to scan it with kaspersky, I get a msg windowshowing "Windows Explorer has stopped working" checking for a solution for this problem.Then another window appears saying "Windows Explorer has restarted"after this, the "My Computer" window which was open closes automatically.I have to click "My Computer" again and right click on the USB drive and scan it.Then it works and scans my USB drive.This is happening whenever I plug any USB drive.Any solution for this problem?Thanks.Regards,Athar

Hi Ahtar, As I am in no way connected to Kaspersky, I cannot guarantee that this solution will work. Only thing I know is that Kasperky is working on a Windows 7 compatible version of their product and that the latest version is on their website. As the version you are using is older than the current Windows 7 compatible beta you have better chances when you run that software. I see mixed reports about the beta software I pointed out. One of them is in a thread on this forum. http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7itproappcompat/thread/04861c23-9134-4bbf-be01-92b663dfdc37 Microsoft has a list of AntiVirus vendors that they work with for Windows 7 at http://www.microsoft.com/windows/antivirus-partners/windows-7.aspx I am using Avast myself without any issues.Ray
