Is the problem there also when using another browser ?
Is the problem there if you boot FF in safe-mode ?
What exact OS/SP ?
What exact version of avast ?
Is there any other security (related) software installed ? (or was there)

The site is working fine for me.
What happens if you go to https://my.avast.com and try to login ?
What happens if you use another browser ?
Any error message ?

No Problem here, either.

Same problem with Firefox and Explorer  :-\
I'm sure this is due to my PC but I can't find what could be the problem...
Could it be due to my internet provider ("Free" in France) ?

The site is working fine for me.

Are you getting a message when trying to open the site or one after you tried to login ?

I can't login 'cause I can't access avast site. It works with my smartphone but not from my laptop... :o

Disable https scanning in the webshield and see if the problem is solved or not.

I mean disabling the "https scanning" doesn't not solve the problem.

Thanks for the reminder.

Yes it is easy to forget ;)

Especially when you don't encounter this on a regular basis.
Still forgotten ?
When I think the day I reported this problem, many laughed at me  :-\
