I have been using Avast free for years and I just started having this problem. I am running Windows 7 64bit. I have 3 computers hooked up to a router, 1 usb, 1 ether and 1 wireless and the usb and wireless connection work. The comp I have this problem w/ is the ether one. I updated to the new build and bam…no connection. I can right click on the botton left and suspend protection for 10 min and I have internet again…any ideas?
do you have a firewall ?
