Hello,
Having a problem I see other have had in that after updating avast last night I am unable to browse to common websites (mose google sites - youtube, blogger, etc) with ANY browser and it appears that Thunderbird also does not work while MailShield is on. Been using Avast for years.
To correct this I have tried:
- repair avast installation.
- Clean avast install by using provided cleaner in safe mode and re-installing.
Nothing has worked.
If I disable avast or uninstall it, everything appears to work normally. But not while shields are on. I do not use the browser plugin.
I cannot turn off "scan https://" because on this machine I am still on Vista 64, which incidentally has been working fine until now.
I'm not sure where else to go with this. Want to keep Avast, but not if it shuts down almost all my productivity. Though I must admit... NOT being able to browse most websites or receive emails certainly makes things secure.
