Do we actually need the aswJsFlt64.dll if the OS and browser are 32bit versions ?
Or am I reading too much into the name (64 = 64bit).

EDIT: Even with the self-defence module disabled you may well still get file is in use, etc. I disabled the Script Shield and still got the file in use error. Solution close firefox and you should be able to replace the files.

DavidR I don't know if 32 bit OS needs it but it is there originally.

BTW it did not work for me.

Having the same negative experiences like "iroc9555" with the first set of .dll, I can now say the second set of :dll seems to be working perfectly.

Thanks "pk"! :-*

Doesn't work with FF 18.  Didn't think it would so uninstalled and installed 16.0.2 again.  Might update to version 17 and see if Script Shield works.

you can try turn off self-protection mode (settings -> troubleshooting)
backup your aswJsFlt*.dll files from program files\avast software\avast
and download these 2 files: http://public.avast.com/~kurtin/patches/ap2012-23-11-001/aswJsFlt.dll + http://public.avast.com/~kurtin/patches/ap2012-23-11-001/aswJsFlt64.dll
it should work for FF 17.x (don't sure for 16.x XP SP2) and Chrome 16+ (incl. 23 version)
Just updated the 32-bit .dll file only.  Do I need the 64-bit .dll as this is a 32-bit system? 

Found it necessary to enter Safe Mode after disabling the self-protection module as 'Access is denied' error popped up, even though that module was turned off.  Just dragged and dropped the file into the folder specified; noted the file properties seemed to be identical to the original, what with the same origin date in September, 2012 in digital signatures, tho.  Did see a 64-bit version in there too.

Wow! Works now!  Thanks pk!
