Thank you all so much for your help...
Right now the situation is....
Avast did an install... I put the reg files in....
I added Avast to my Windows Firewall allowances...
But my Opera browser... and My IE Browser will not work at all... They hang and do not go to the web. In fact, I can't even access my satellite modem with them which is usually instantaneous. Again, I appreciate all the help and I really need to get this fixed. By the way, when I turn off the web sheild and mail sheild my Opera works... But I don't want to leave them off...
Thanks Again..
David
