Hello you all,
I have Avast Home 4.6 and Zone Alarm Pro.
Sometimes ZA warns me that Avast Web Scanner wants to accept connections from the Internet.(violet colour of the advisory)
Should I grant this request, temporarily or permanently, in case ?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Dont know for sure but i would imagine web scanner needs access to the web so that the web sheild can scan for viruses coming in over the internet connection. I usually just permanently allow access to avast components and everything works ok for me.
It seems to be asking for server rights (be accessed from Internet).
If it’s working like a proxy, it’ll be normal. But, in my case, it did not ask for these rights (although I do not use ZA). :
