This is the error box I get regarding avast and visual studio 8....I am wondering how to fix this, because it pops up pretty frequently and sometimes crashes my browser.

Please disable avast! self-defense in program settings (Troubleshooting page).
When the error box appears again, try to create the dump of the ashWebSv.exe process, as described e.g. here.

Just got another error message, slightly different:

Code: [Select]

I used the dump tool and made a dump but, how exactly am I supposed to get the FTP upload working?

 Whats the best secure FTP client you recommend? 

and how do i upload this?  I haven't used FTP all that much honestly.

You don't actually need an ftp application if you use IE (or IE Clone), as this doesn't seem to work with firefox. Ensure you have a unique file name for the dump (e.g. AverageJoe-C.dmp, etc.) so they know what it is about.

Upload them to ftp://ftp.avast.com/incoming - Connect to the link and drag the file (from your HDD) into the Right pane and drop it, that starts the upload, you don't have read access to this folder.

I don't think a secure FTP client is needed (actually, I doubt the server supports SFTP or FTPS).
I think it can be uploaded even through Internet Explorer (just don't get confused by the fact that you won't have read/list rights on the folder, so you won't see anything there - not even the file you upload).

Anyway, I wrote a short description on how to upload it using the command-line ftp, included in Windows:

Well, obviously some 3rd party module is being loaded into avast! processes (both for AverageJoe and pimpinjg).
avast! is not compiled in Visual Studio 2005, so it doesn't need/use VC++ 2005 redirectibutable. So, there's somebody else's module being loaded into our processes - and causing the error reports.

[pimpinjg]

well either way this method did work and thats all that counts

Hi,
aren't you by any chance using "Hide My IP 2008", we have seen similar errors with this software (it's dll securenet.dll).

[svelasco]

I have the same problem with "Hide My IP 2008"

[AverageJoe]

Actually, yes, I am using hide my ip!  with securenet.dll hooked into my LSP (winsock chain)

Perhaps that is the issue..maybe i should contact them and let them know they are not avast-friendly?

Or just uninstall it?

what do u guys recommend I do to fix this

lookup for my post on C++ 2005 thatll fix it

[AverageJoe]

Err the 'fix" for Visual C++ 2005 didnt even run on my computer, I clicked it, waited, and nothing happened..it just froze up and exited by itself.

Now in addition svchost.exe is also having issues with Visual C++ and shutting down beause of this...so the problem is getting worse

Any other suggestions?

[AverageJoe]

Nobody??
