Now for whatever reason I have lost ICS. Don't ask if it is the new beta or what
So without knowing the cause, you blame it on Avast. Not a nice thing to do if you ask me.
Perhaps you could elaborate. You quote me in part and 'selectively' and interject the word "blame"!.
I actually said that I had been through many of the problems that other users had been experiencing and that the loss of ICS is the latest in the list (for me) since the release of 4.5. I am not blaming anyone, or jumping the Avast! ship, I just do not have time, nor the kind of installation which allows me to keep tracking down problems. Reverting to a known good version would have been my preferred choice at this time.
Personally I would use a router to share the connection. If the 'server' system breaks down, none is able to connect, that problem is not there if you use a router.
Thank you for enlightened me. I already go through a Wi-Fi connection (when available) to share a RDSI (one channel locked down) dial-up (all that is available). Other times I connect via satellite or GPRS (both expensive).
A few "clever bod's” have come out with suggestions on how this system could be improved, some of the 'real' clever one's have even been invited to try it and install their wares... they have all left with their tales between their legs. But thanks for your input... which I will add to my collection.
