avast webrep broke down

Hello,

since 2 days I have a problem with avast. If I start my browser (google chrome)a box appears in the lower right hand corner that says something like : avast webrep broke down. Click here on that window to start the replacement again.
(I dont know whether I translated it right, in german it saiys: Avast webrep ist abgestürzt. Klicken Sie auf dieses Fenster um die Erweiterung erneut zu laden.)

I have know Idea why it does this, if I click on the window, after a few seconds the box apears again.
I am very thankful for every advice,
Shenila

try avast repair

contolpanel > ad remove programs > avast > uninstall > repair option > wait a couple of minutes and reboot

any change ?
