IE freezes with Avast...
« on: April 05, 2015, 12:55:59 PM »
Every time Avast automatically updates itself, it locks up my browser (IE) for about 3 - 5 minutes. Please help.

1) Your installed Avast version?
2) What Windows Operating System/SP(Service Pack) version?
3) What is your previous antivirus? Did you use it's own removal tool after uninstallation via add/remove?
4) IE version?
5) Are you using Windows Firewall/another firewall program?

No other security in use but the default MS product is installed but disabled

Thanks

Start with installing the latest version and update your OS with at least all security update/patches.
