Inside Chrome. Theres just AOS, LastPass, Wappalyzer, µBlock Origin and Data save mode active.

Had the site of OverclockersUK broken today too but that may have been the webshield garbeling it up.

Disable all extensions in Chrome except AOS, restart Chrome and see if you still have the problem.

It shouldn't make any difference with Avast Premier turned off (unless you also disabled AOS) as that would have no bearing on the AOS browser extension as once installed it is effectively independent of Avast Premier.

You can install AOS even if you don't use Avast:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/avast-online-security/gomekmidlodglbbmalcneegieacbdmki?hl=en

It isn't so much being able to install AOS without avast (in regard of the bug) but AOS being essentially independent of avast when avast is disabled, AOS is still running in the browser.

Any bug in AOS could still be present, if it is indeed an AOS bug. I'm not entirely convinced of this or I would have expected to see more reports in the forums, I would also expect it to be seen happening in other web sites and not just here in the forums.

Personally I never chase an error the first time it occurs, even the second or third time if it isn't a regular occurrence.
