avast keeps blocking webpages.

system · 2015-07-28T12:12:29.000Z

Hello,

in the past couple of days avast won’t allow any browser (IE, Mozilla, Chrome) to load most of the secure webpages (google.com, gmail, yahoo.com, yahoo mail, youtube…). It does open some pages like msn.com, cnn.com, bing. But i really need to see all the other pages When i turn off the WebShield it works perfectly but I think that is not the long term solution…

I use:
Windows XP Professional
Avast 10.3.2223
Virus def 150728-0

Please help, tnx

What happens if you turn off https scanning ? https://www.avast.com/en-eu/faq.php?article=AVKB189

it will be like before avast added https scanning

and as the avast FAQ website say “HTTPS scanning is not supported on Windows XP and Windows Vista.”
