utorrent locks up

I have been having this problem with utorrent locking up for about 10 seconds everytime i click any button is anyone else having this problem.. i check my memory usage and its under 10% and all my other windows have no problems.. its just with utorrent.. i would appreciate any help in this matter, it only started with this latest upgrade

Can you go to the bottom of http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=15992 and perform the steps for a Process Explorer logfile of the utorrent.exe process to see if something is injected there which shouldn't be?

Well, the first thing that stands out is the implementation of ALL THOSE Panda DLLs

Additionally Yahoo toolbar/messenger added their idle monitor (apparently into all running processes) lol.

I don't know what to say other than add uTorrent to all monitor application exceptions in the panda suite... If you don't know how to do that, uninstall panda temporarily and reboot. If that solves the problem, you can/should install each component in panda one at a time until the problem re-manifests so you KNOW which service/component causes this. I would start with those which would inspect/analyze internet traffic and RAM.

it was doing it , when i had avg as my security , but i guess i can try uninstalling it and running it without it, and how do i get rid of the yahoo , that is into everything...i don't even use IE , so anything i can get rid of i would love to

ok,, uninstalled my panda. and that did it.. what do you recommend

Since Yahoo is smaller.. I'd start by uninstalling that first. Hmm that's odd AVG did it as well, but make sure you reboot between uninstall and testing again. Also run Process Explorer again to be sure nothing else is injected.

here you go....well i like yahoo messanger

You didn't uninstall panda before you ran this logfile? Did the problem stop happening before uninstalling panda?

If not, uninstall.. reboot, test and run another logfile to verify.

Well I guess you could stop all the services by doing this and then running uTorrent to verify... start > run > services.msc find all the services for panda (there are 8) and right click, stop, right click, disable. Or you may need to go to properties and then select disable, it's been a while.

Hmm, actually

O23 - Service: Panda Process Protection Service (PavPrSrv) - Panda Software - C:\Program Files\Common Files\Panda Software\PavShld\pavprsrv.exe

looks like the most promising one "process protection" certainly sounds like it mucks with process RAM to "protect" you from things. Since you get GUI lag when interacting with the interface, perhaps there is a configuration panel for this service.

ok,, lets try again.,,.here it goes.. and i am still having speed problems, and i just did the firmware upgrade for my router
