Long loading times all of a sudden

A little bit ago I had an issue in which over the course of a day, my loading time would get longer with each round that went by. At first, I thought it was just a one time thing. After a few days, I posted to the forum for help, and prWars DC-K told me to defrag my drive. That worked, but about an hour later it was back to really long loading times. I tried switching which graphics card PR was using, which did not work. I tried to do a clean reinstall, which worked for about 24 hours, until now here I am with the same exact problem once again. I need help.

Hang on, this could be it. After digging deep into task manager, I have found that today there was an underground virus scan going on. Can't confirm yet that that's what is doing it.

Okay, I need help. Turning off my virus scanner did not fix the issue, as it was back just now. However, after a 19 minute loading time on Fallujah on PRTA NA, the game took me back to the server browser with the following message:

"Network data corruption error. Please try again."

I need help!!! Does this mean anything? How do I stop my game from having really long loading times, it wasn't doing this before! Like I said before, I don't think it's a computer performance issue, as once I get in game I get a smooth 40-60 FPS.

Someone please help. I've been playing PR for four years and I don't want to have to quit because of this issue!

Is anyone out there?

Have you tried reinstalling PR?

he said he did in the OP

does this only work for PR? try any large games like arma and see how the loadings are

this could be a failing hard drive

what AV do you use?

I am not a computer man so I don't know what AV stands for.

I've been playing BF4 and ArmA 3 while my PR has been broken, and they load in at pretty normal times.

disable the "Malicious behavior" option, or "HIPS"

ive never actually used it before, so i cant tell you how to do it, fiddle in the settings and you should find it

Try turning off the firewall your using too if that anti virus has a firewall. Should do a full virus scan of your system too if it's been a while since the last scan
