Called Avast and they said that my windows program was not working rite. BUT for $179 he could fix it. I said NO! A friend of mine that works on comp’s found the problem. IT WAS AVAST, He turned off perticapate(sp) in avast community, And it doesn’t block internet explorer any longer. Go figure, for 179 dollars he could have turned off it for me. DON’T get ripped off!!! Hopes this helps someone,
