I don't run avast anymore BUT, when I did there was never any such issue with firewalls.
Look around the forum, there are plenty of folk here use Outpost Firewall, I don't see them having this problem.
>>> Yes, I did not either... this just started recently after an Avast! program update. I end up with literally dozens of Avast! Setup files listed in the Firewall, each one in a different location, hence Outpost Firewall dutifully asks if I want to let it access the Internet each time it CHANGES. In the past, I only had to set this ONE TIME and it was good to go every time instead of CHANGING every single time.

are you running two firewalls? ..... if so not strange you have problems
>>> NO I am not running 2 firewalls. For your nfo, I got my first computer in 1979 and did programming and hardware work. I am 66 years old. I ran an EBBS starting in 1980 for 10 years. NO, only ONE Firewall... DUH DUH DUH.... what in the world made you think anything like that??? Totally NOT helpful. A waste of your time and mine.
i recomend using winfirewall for novice users ..... you have it in your OS
>>> With having been computing both hardware and software since 1979 I will bet I have more experience and knowledge than you ;-)
do you have more then one antivirus installed also?

http://www.avast.com/en-eu/faq.php?article=AVKB11#artTitlehttp://singularlabs.com/uninstallers/>>> NO NO NO an NO again. And what has that got to do with Avast! continually having to have NEW Firewall Permissions all the time. It has done this SEVERAL times just today.
hmmm....your posting style.....i would have guessed it was kids posting
>>> Yes, when you have NO REAL SOLUTIONS just insult the person. Lowest form. ;-) There, putting a wink face makes it better, eh. Since this is happening on 4 different computers it is definitely an Avast! change in programming. They need to put it back the way it was.
