Any news on when the network shield will work properly with Windows 8. I have to disable the network shield to log into my routers. The network shield works fine with Windows 7.
-
I'm not proper following what do you mean with "disable the network shield to log into my routers".
What I can say is that in local software (not hardware) and using the patch available in forums, Net Shield is working with Windows 8.
-
Have not applied any patch since it only affects router web pages that I can determine.
This has been occurring for some time now, when will the patch make its way to a general release?

When will the patch make its way to a general release?
On version 8 of avast! next weeks.

Once it is released. :)

Thank you both for your non-informative replies. You obviously have no idea about the timing of a fix for this!
-
What we don't have is a fixed date for the release of avast!8.
-
Since Avast 8 is not even in beta its not anytime soon!

Applied aswnet patch and network shield problem not solved.
On Windows 8 both Firefox and Internet Explorer browsers hang when accessing Linksys, Netgear and Tomato USB router web pages. With Network shield disabled web pages do not hang and display correctly.
