Title: com.avast.proxy block incoming connections yes or no?
Post by: Kueball on May 20, 2020, 07:50:35 PM

I have Avast Security free version installed. I just upgraded from Mojave to Catalina, and I notice that in the Catalina firewall in System Prefs > Security & Privacy > Firewall > Firewall Options com.avast.proxy is set to block incoming connections. Is this correct? What does this setting do with Avast proxy, on or off?

Hello,
yes, we add it there, com.avast.proxy does not need to listen to external connections.
Kind regards,
