Some anti-spyware programs like “Spyware Doctor” or “Stopzilla” will view Xfire as a threat and halt the process before it can connect to the internet. This is why Xfire appears to crash or freeze when you login. To prevent this, be sure to allow Xfire.exe and xfire_exception.exe in your anti-spyware programs exceptions list or allowed programs list. For details on how to do this please consult the online support or documentation that was included with your security software.
