I'm running Avast Free 5.1.889 on Windows 7 Ultimate and suddenly a few days ago after booting up the web shield just turned itself off. The Avast icon in the tray now has a exclamation point that wont go away.
I try to turn them back on in the Avast interface but nothing happens. I disabled Windows Defender and uninstalled Malwarebytes with no avail (no other virus protection is installed). Next, I tried to repair but that didn't work. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling with no luck. I then tried uninstalling and then using the Avast removal tool. After another installation I get the same result (I even tried this in safemode).
Maybe a firewall issue? I did try turning off the firewall but nothing seemed to change. Something I'm missing? Any other suggestions?

Bump. I also wanted to add I'm running 64 bit.
