Avast preventing Skype from making calls
« on: October 31, 2016, 12:47:56 AM »
In order to make a new call, or receive any calls, I have to disable Avast.

When people try to call me while Avast is enabled, nothing happens on my side.  I don't get any notification.

Once the call has been started, I can enable avast again and the call does not drop.  It's only to initiate the call.

I've been using Avast (paid) for around 3 years.  This problem has persisted for almost 1 year.

First question:  Is there a way to create an exception for this?  I've tried before with no luck.

Main question: Why?  This is an extremely popular application that should not be having these types of issues.
