After the update from AVG9 Free to AVG 2011 Free, I notice a great slow down using Cygwin. A few applications, like 'wget' and 'python', are marked as 'malaware' by the new AVG (surely false positives), and now building things take much more time. For example, a full bootstrap of Emacs, takes more than an hour. Under AVG9, instead, it took *only* about 25 minutes. Has Cygwin people ideas/tricks on how avoid this? Perhaps is time to change AV?
I've noticed the same thing. I've also started seeing problems that look like BLODA. I just uninstalled AVG and am trying Avast instead.
