Kaspersky should allow you to exclude the app and app data folders. I'm surprised they recommended turning off the service. Certainly AV software should not get in the way to the extent of your performance observations. Hi Paul, glad to hear this post was helpful.

I was experiencing a major slowdown in loading a networked app over a peer to peer network on two Windows 7 machines. The app now takes 6 minutes to load. The data is over the network, but the exes are local. Using the coverage profiler I was able to see that a simple USE command took 4-8 seconds to complete, so I know it has to do with accessing the data on a networked machine. The anti virus possibility got my interest. We have Kaspersky on our system which allows fine tuned control over its features. I tested the app with each individual feature off. When I turned off a feature called System Watcher the app loaded in less than 30 seconds. Turn it on and takes 6 minutes. I tried to enter an exception in Kaspersky but nothing I entered changed anything. Kaspersky tech support says my only option is to turn off System Watcher. So thanks for the guidance. It helped me a lot. Paul Becker Hi Rick,
