Hi, I don’t know if there has been a thread for this, but I cannot see one after a quick look.
I have to be quick ( in case my pc hangs) because I have used Avast4 for the last 3 years with no probs but then I get a email telling me to renew my license or buy Avast 5. I downloaded Avast 5.
My problem is that I cannot open either the Internet Explorer or Firefox at the first attempt. It seems to take a good 3/4 mins before anything happens.
Plus, when I eventually get a website on my monitor, it takes another 3/4 mins to change to another one.
It was NEVER this slow with Avast4 and I know the problem is with the Firewall which is stopping anything opening. What I did just to get to this forum was to turn the Avast Firewall off.
There is no other ani-virus software on my pc so what is stopping the browsers from opening? I hope someone will know the answers for it is already doing my head in! I have 50 mb speed & it has gone to zero.
