Can you describe your problem in more detail? Does it mean your browser isn't loading web pages, crash, or something else?

You do not have to deactivate any of the firewalls. Avast ! and Windows will not conflict with each other. If you want to turn off any of them, pick Windows and keep Avast!.

That happens to me once in a blue moon using IE. I just refresh the page and is gone. May be some flash or script that did not load right. Could not be Avast! since you said that Avast! free runs OK and there is no difference between Free and paid with the web shield or script shield. May be just a glitch ????
