You should only ever have to switch it off if you enabled it as it is off by default.

So tweaking avast without looking at the avast help file to find out what the settings do isn't advised. You should also not that this function is also in the Internet Mail and Web Shield providers so if you changed those you would need to reverse any changes there.
