Hi All
This isn't an Avast issue really but I wondered if anyone will have any ideas.
I have just got a new pc (to me) re formatted the drives & re installed windows XP with all the drivers etc,so it's all like new and how it should be :-)
The problem is if I set up say Avast for auto virus updates it WONT be able to connect to the Internet UNLESS I have already started my browser up once!
I am on Dial up adsl broadband so any programs need to be able to bring up the dial up connection box on there own but this doesn't happen.Once I use my browser and connect to the interent then everything is just fine.
On my VERY old PC with win 98 it was no problem,every program could make a connection on it's own.
It also effects everything else such as my Email alert program and other security software.
I have checked everything I can think of but really haven't a clue now ;-(
Does any one have any bright ideas ?
Thanks
Andy
