Title: abort connection
Post by: dumperdunger on October 26, 2010, 03:34:20 AM

Hi, ive been using avast 5 free for some time without issues, great program, but when I went to my daily visit to "giveaway of the day" today it spat the dummy warning about a risk. the only option is to abort connection, no option to ignore. Even closing the warning box with the X at the top right corner causes the browser to close the page. Either something has changed with the web site or avast. How can i turn off this warning, or stop it from closing pages? Thanks
