I own avast internet security 2015 license.
updated to ver. 2015.10.2.2214
but also with the previous version gave me the same problem.
windows 8.1 64bit

new computer, with mcafee pre-installed. uninstalled with mcbr properly.
After that I installed avast, but blocks all downloads from google chrome, virus updates (says host unreachable), opening the pages and images internet malfunctioning.
the only way I can make it all work is to disable avast internet security:
- web scan
- firewall protection
- dns protection
it's like not to have practically nothing on.
I tried with another pc, putting avast with the same basic settings, and everything worked properly. I also reset the computer's operating system on new computer, and also tried uninstalling avast with safe mode and the tool avast.
did not work anything.
please help.

"Host Unreachable" will usually suggest that there is a routing issue.  The datagram delivered to the network specified in the network ID portion of the IP address may not have been able to get sent to the specific host indicated in the address.

It can be caused by malware.
I suggest to start with this:
https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=53253.0

If nothing comes up, at least a possible cause is ruled out.

as I wrote, it is none of these things (though I had already tried an anti-malware software) but some setting or something related to antivirus, because it caps off in real time, that's all back to work
anyone have any idea what can be? it is not possible that I should turn off the three guards:
Web
dns
firewall

to run my system normally

Could you re-run the McAfee mcpr file again please as I did remove two element of McAfee.  And McAfee is well known for messing the internet after removal

Please download MiniToolBox, save it to your desktop and run it.

Checkmark the following checkboxes:
  • Flush DNS
  • Report IE Proxy Settings
  • Reset IE Proxy Settings
  • Report FF Proxy Settings
  • Reset FF Proxy Settings
  • List content of Hosts
  • List IP configuration
  • List Winsock Entries
  • List last 10 Event Viewer log
  • List Installed Programs
  • List Devices
  • List Users, Partitions and Memory size.
  • List Minidump Files

Click Go and post the result (Result.txt). A copy of Result.txt will be saved in the same directory the tool is run.
 
Note: When using "Reset FF Proxy Settings" option Firefox should be closed.

Hmm it is pinging google OK

Could you go to control panel > internet options > connections > lan settings
Ensure that it looks just like the screen shot below.
OK out and try again

yes, it's the same.

could be useful if I re- disinstall/install avast?


I tried by safe mode (this is third time) and this previous Avast version seems functioning:

avast 2015.10.0.2208
virus definitions 141107-0
definitions number 2.745.363
I tried a few downloads and all was ok.


now I re-installed the last version:
avast 2015.10.2.2214
virus definitions 150310-1
definitions number 3.648.316

and nothing work -.-
is that possibile?

Could you clear all the rules in the Avast firewall and see if that does anything
