Hi :)

Actually many Avast users has same problem as you,you may try remove AIS in safe mode with aswclear and install it again.

aswclear.exe:

Firewall NDIS Filter Miniport driver failures:

Thank you.

Bye


PS:

How to uninstall our software using aswClear:
1:Download aswclear.exe on your desktop
2:Start Windows in Safe Mode
3:Open (execute) the uninstall utility
-If you installed avast! in a different folder than the default, browse for it. (Note: Be careful! The content of any folder you choose will be deleted!)
4:Click REMOVE
5:Restart your computer

what AV did you usef before avast?......did your computer have a preinstalled trail AV when new
did you remove it before installing avast?
did you run the vendors removal tool to clear any leftover files that may conflict?
