My problems are gone too!
Did I understood correctly that the file ashWebSv.exe.sum had to be copied as well?
It's a pity that I did not try this website with the pre-release version 4.6.618.

Congratulations Alwil!!

Yes the .sum file must be copied as well or Avast will put back the old ashWebSv.exe

Yes, please copy both files to the same directory. This prevents avast's integrity check to overwrite the file with the original release version.

Copy both files from the Vlk's zip file. The sum file will remain there just till the updated release version is available. Then, the final version will replace this pre-release and the sum file will be deleted.

Thanks for bringing this up.....
"Anyway ... if Eddy says that he sees the problem then I will always assume the problem really exists"
That is meant as a compliment, please accept it as such.
Cheers  :)

lukor,

What did you change to resolve the problem? (or would it even make sense to us non-programmers? <g>)

Please follow these steps to install the patch:

1. Stop the WebShield provider in avast
2. Download http://cat.asw.cz/misc/ashwebsv.zip and extract its contents to the avast folder. Overwrite ashWebSv.exe that's already there (it shouldn't be locked because of step 1.)
3. Start the WebShield provider

Thanks
Vlk


I too have been having problems with loading pages.  I use zone alarm firewall and have shut down the privacy options for it, I have even changed the proxy settings for Firefox.  When I tried to go to the link listed above, the page said I was blocked.  What can I do now?

By the way I have a FastWeb connection (fiber optic) so I would assume that it shouldn't take long to download pages

I downloaded the patch and all seems to be working very well. Is it just my imagination or is Web Shield working a LOT faster than it was before the patch? I'm getting really fast page load times tonight, much faster than the previous several nights. If this is because of the patch, good job guys!!

Ah! the magic of Alwil's "run faster" code!

But then ... a great imagination is a terrible thing to waste.  ;)

Vlk...
Report from the 'new' WebShield:
3 errors of 'memory could not be read' with Spamihilator, my local proxy application (talk with Lukas), TimeSync (atomic time synchronization), avast.setup...
Shutting down Windows with ashserv.exe error.
It's weird that all the errors appeared after patching...  :P
