Thanks for the reply,
i have DLd and installed the Avast Int Sec fine but it won't accept my key.
The red around the box disappears to show it is a valid key but then avast can not access the internet.
"process can not ..... try again later (-1)"
Have turned of the only microsoft firewall operating in the interim and still no access.
Even when clicking on SOLVE ALL button when avast opens it cant connect to the internet. It looks like avast can't connect to the internet at all for some reason looking at this post as a whole.
thanks for any help coming
