No probs with the HJT, just need to get my hands on that machine - it's my neighbors, he just bought it and gave it to me to set it up for him; i spent 3 days trying every single iteration of this avast issue; this whole ordeal makes me feel bad about taking his time and recommending a product that hinders his experience
You say this affects a very small amount of users... do a search on this forum for Browsing. Dozens of threads, lots of blame on Zone Alarm or McAfee or AVG; no effective solutions
If there was one, I am sure you'd proudly tag it FIXED and make it sticky!
An average user just gives up and switches products, only 0.01% can be bothered with seeking help on the forums, of those maybe 10% are patient enough with the "remove this, clean that, reinstall, reformat..." back and forth, that doesn't seem to lead anywhere.
