Avast! "timeout" (????)
« on: February 12, 2005, 01:48:01 AM »
I am getting this 'timeout' message from Avast:

"AVAST!  Connection timeout
Internet connection timeout elapsed.  Continue waiting?"

What does this mean?

I get this message when I have a PPC plugged in via USB.  When the PPC is not plugged in, I do not get this message.

What's going on???

It sounds like this PPC thing is interfering with your internet connection.

Also some information as to what a PPC is would be most welcome.

"PPC"= personal pocket computer

A hand held computer (like a PDA).

Please use TCPView (http://www.sysinternals.com/files/tcpview.zip) when timeout message appears to find out what program established the timed-out connection (the one with State: ESTABLISHED and Remote Address: localhost:12110 or 12025).
