mine is 6 years old 1.250 of mem  but its getting an upgrade in 3 weeks
But, your OS is Win XP, right?  I can't believe the avast alert would slow down an XP system with 1.25GB of RAM.  If it does, the that system has some serious issues affecting it.

Yeah, if it's annoying, then disable it or don't bother to enable it.  As far as slowing down older computers, I haven't noticed that on the computer on which I'm running Win 7, and it's a 5 1/2 years or more old Pentium IV, with 2GB of RAM.
Well I was talking about more around 256 mb of RAM. ;)
