Howdy,
Windows install.
AFA was monitoring network traffic when first installed a few weeks ago. Observed this in Resource Monitor and network traffic was calm - the reason for installing AFA in the first place so, happy.
Yesterday this stopped, network traffic skyrocketed again with svchost.exe PID’s, googleusercontent.com, amazonaws.com, download.ross-tech.com sending and receiving even when no browser is open. This stuff starts happening on computer startup.
AFA, Network Inspector tells me “You’re Offline” when I’m obviously not and Avast can download updates.
Avast is not blocked by windows firewall.
Restored machine to pre Avast install, no luck, same result.
Uninstalled Reinstalled Avast, no luck, same result - “You’re Offline”.
What have I missed, or should I just burn the PC?
