Try to update your avast to 4.8 again. If the problem still happen to you again reply back if no reply back too.

Do you use a firewall? Which one?
Do you have any other antivirus installed in your system? Did you have in the past?
Any other security programs that could interfere?
In XP/Vista, is there any useful information into Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Events, specially ‘Errors’?
