Iptray.exe Heavy Disk I/o


Recommended Posts

Recently I have noticed some severe performance issues when using Immunet Protect 3.0.1.6112 (latest version)

as the disk reads indication in Task Manager for iptray.exe is going absolutely crazy. The system degrades to

a point of almost dead slow (browsing, video playback, etc).

 

As a test I stopped immunet protect and the disk I/O (and the HDD activity light on my desktop) went back to

normal (instead of being a solid red light). This issue seems to have started recently, and I am not sure

how to correct it?

 

Does anyone have any suggestions for me?

 

System is Windows 7 x64 ultimate, 8GB DDR2-1066, Athlon II X4 630 @ 2.8Ghz, 1TB Seagate (Drive C:), 2TB Seagate (Drive D:)

Turn "Block Mode" off, check if TETRA and ClaAV are both enabled.

I turned off ClamAV (I'm using the free cloud version, so Tetra isn't available), and

I turned off block mode. I can hear Immunet thrashing away the moment I restarted the

service in Task Manager (meh).

 

Anyone else have some ideas?

It sounds like you're running into some kind of conflict with one or more running program(s). Besides Immunet, are you running any other security/anti-malware apps? If so try adding those Program Files into Immunet's Exclusion List and re-start your computer. You could try and disable Monitor Program Start in the Settings and see if that has any effect too.

Hi,

Disabling "Monitor Program Start" should be only for a temporary diagnostic purpose then!

"Monitor Program Start" should be "ON" permanently, if the computer should be protected by Immunet!

Cheers,

It seems to have quieted down from what it was doing 5 hours ago. I am using Kaspersky Internet Security 2011

(which has been added to the exclusion list in Immunet).

 

Here are the current settings for Immunet:

 

Monitor Program Install/Start (ON)

ETHOS/SPERO (ON)

All ClamAV is (OFF)

Quarantine Behavior (AUTOMATIC)

 

Disk I/O activity is now an occasional flash (which is what it should be).

 

Very strange stuff :)

Turning "Block Mode" Off it will use fewer resources as I said. We have Kaspersky as incompatible software as you cann read here.
