Avast free v18.5 exclusions and all modules disable not working

Hello,

I came across a Site where Avast Script Web Protection blocked content, I made exclusions for it in the Webshield and overall but the parts where still blocked. Then I clicked the avast tray icon with right click disable Protection until restart and it still Script Webshield blocked the content. I deleted browser cache, cookies and reopened the browser (it was opera) with same result, even other browser firefox had the same issue.

So my Question is has the current avast a bug included which makes it impossible to disable the Webshield protection and exclusions not to work or is it just me?

Can someone else preferable also with Win7 x64 SP1 latest Patch level also try for example the eicar Testfile with disabled Webshield and or exclusion for that site (https://www.eicar.org/86-0-Intended-use.html), so I know its just me with this problem or has everyone this problem?

Thanks in advance

Matt

Hi Matt, it works for me.

thanks for your help, i guess its only me then…

did you set an exclusion for the site or disable full protection until restart?

I disabled the shields (temporarily).
