Hi, After many happy moons carefree use of Avastfree 7, just did a clean install of version 9 ( first used avastclear in safe mode etc, then fresh installed v9). Installed fine. Except… every Google search using IE10 32bit causes browser to stop working before avast’s webrep makes any show next to links. IE10 says it’s stopped working then lets me back to my home page.

Obvious it’s the Avast! Online Security plugin’s fault, because I disabled it and search crash problem went.

AswWebRepIE worked fine in IE10 on avast v7 - I’ve made no changes to my system. Just upgraded avast.

Any advice appreciated.

This issue is already know and the people from avast are working on it.
It will be fixed soon.

Thanks Eddy. Never doubted Avast ;). Will stop fretting.

Fault report says the faulting module is MSVCR110.dll, Module Version: 11.0.51106.1. That dll’s properties say it’s to do with Msoft Visual Studio 2012, so befuddles me why it has suddenly started glitching with avast’s webrep in google searches, but I’ve learnt not to expect to understand… :-[
