@ MetLelfVile,

You will get a quicker response here on the forum but you gave no details to your problem in your post.  Please describe your problem in detail so that we can help you.  Thank you.


the thing is, that it is a nonspecific problem.
Today at 6 pm everything was fine but when I turned on my computer later, around 10 pm, I couldn't even get to my google homepage. Firefox and ie8 cannot connect and say that the connection was reset and try again later. I briefly see the page and then it resets.
I use avast5 free and when I turned off the real-time webshield, everything works fine. without doing that, I couldn't even post to this thread as the page reset itself.
I did not change anything between the visits to the computer but apparently avast updated itself when I turned the computer on again.
A friend of mine has the same exact problem - everything was fine in the morning but later some pages are not accessible.

please help! wouldn't want to change programs or keep the web-shield off.
