Hi garne2t,
Welcome to the Avast Forums.
Please note this thread was started September 19, 2012 and last post was on September 27, 2012, almost seven years ago. Avast Online Security is not a part of avast real-time protection as you seem to imply but is, rather, a browser add-on, so the issue you're reporting is different from what was discussed in this topic.
Please start your own topic, especially when they are as old and obsolete as this one is. If you care to, more information in a new topic as to what you saw, experienced, and what you did to fix it will likely help others with similar issues with AOS.
