I recently upgraded to the 2015 10.8.2208 and had to do 2 system restores, because after I did the update, it was not letting me on facebook at all weird as heck, and it didn't matter what browser I used. I opened a CMD window and pinged facebook could not reach it. pulled out my I pad and that worked fine pulled out another laptop with the same update and that also worked fine. SO I'm using 2014.9.0.2021 after my 3 system restores. Should I just uninstall and run avast clear and re-install/ insert my lic again. I noticed it blocked other sites in some cases too. but 2014.9.2021 does not do this.

someone claims there is a setting you can change but I could not find it in the menu, they should have designed it so by default it DOES not block! If you want to block you add it to the list yourself.... It was not a Browser plug in since I could not even ping the sites like facebook using DOS

Look in the AOS ( Avast Online Security ) settings via the AOS icon at the top of your browser.
