Slow startup under Windows 7

[logidelic]

I am experiencing a very slow PowerArchiver (latest version) startup, under Windows 7 64-bit. The issue is sporadic. It seems that once PowerArchiver loads (after a several second delay), then I no longer have the problem (at least for a while).

This isn't a normal slow-program startup. My system is running super fast and I don't have this issue with any other programs. I'm running ESET Antivirus, but I don't think this is the cause since, as I say, after the first PowerArchiver load, it loads new ZIP files very quickly.

The startup speed doesn't seem to be related to the size of the ZIP files. It appears to be PowerArchiver itself which is slow to start for the first time.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
