Avast is blocking connection to secure websocket
« on: July 29, 2015, 09:35:03 AM »
Just installed v. 10.3.2223 Free Antivirus

I have now the problem, that I can not see some pages that require a secured websocket connection using CORS.
This page https://chess24.com/en/watch/live-tournaments uses socket.io 0.9.17 to load most of its dynamic content, but the websocket connection is not established properly.

If I exlude *chess24.com* from the web protection it is working.

I have this problems in chrome (Version 44.0.2403.107 m), Firefox (38.0.5) and Internet Explorer (11.0.9600)
Using Windows 7 x64 Professional.

IMO this is a bug and I would like to know how I can avoid running into this problem, without excluding all pages with a similar problem or even deactivating the entire web protection.

Thanks in advance

First, be sure to get rid of all remnants of your prior installed AV(s)..!!
-> https://www.avast.com/faq.php?article=AVKB11#artTitle

Then:
1. Download Avast Free Antivirus: https://files.avast.com/iavs9x/avast_free_antivirus_setup.exe
2. Follow instructions: https://www.avast.com/uninstall-utility (Run this tool for all prior installed Avast versions..!!)
3. Reinstall Avast with the downloaded installer from point 1.
4. Reboot.

Followed your instructions, but the problem persists.

To check I just went to https://chess24.com/en/watch/live-tournaments and the loader stays forever. Deactivating the web protection and it is working fine.

OK, does it work if you disable HTTPS-Scanning..?
