Sorry, but I am really p*ssed off!
Since before Christmas I have problems with the new Avast!
First Dropbox synchronization was and is not possible anymore (upload)
and I hung up with that (also in the Dropbox-Support forums).
Now I habe seen, that it seems to be that generally uploads to websites
are difficult, because that doesn´t work either! With the same problems,
first ridiculous high speeds, but no uploading at all.
I tried repairing Avast, I tried the fix, I tried the beta, nothing helps.
Problem ist the web shield.
Next problem: Avast freezes most of the times, when I try to deactivate
the web shield!!! I event can´t kill the frozen Avast-task with the task monitor!
Then I have a jolly entertainment with rebooting my computer, waiting
for Avast, trying to deactivate the web shield again, freezin´, rebooting
my computer AGAIN and so on and on.
I use:
Windows 7 Home SP 1, 64 bit
Avast Free, 22014.9.0.2012, Version 140114-1
aswstm.sys - file version: 9.0.2012.285
and no aswstm.sys.sum anymore since installing beta
I guess we all have better things to do, than testing this, installing
that, trying something else and so on.
I need my internet connection to share data, it just has to work, which
it does not since before christmas!
I was always satisfied with Avast, for many years. Ok, sometimes there
were updates which gave false positives, but that was mostly repaired
a +few hours later+, so no need to complain.
But this time I am waiting nearly a month for a working update, which
is much too much trouble!
Please: I want a solution and it would be nice, if it came finally!
I really wish I could have the old program back, really!
Cheers,
Monica
P.S. sorry for my English, but in the German forum groups
I found no similar thread.
