Chrome SSL

Virus Definition 141117-0 that came out yesterday with Avast Endpoint Protection Suite Program 8.0.1603 breaks several HTTPS sites in chrome. The pages work in IE and Firefox, but when you try to open them in Chrome it says that the page is not available.

Chrome Console shows

Failed to load resource: net::ERR_CONNECTION_ABORTED
Failed to load resource: net::ERR_CACHE_MISS

Pages work fine after uninstalling Avast.

After reinstalling Avast the pages no longer work.

This is still an issue but you can get around it without turning too much off:

Settings > Active Protection

Hit “Customise” next to “Web Shield”
and turn off “Enable HTTPS Scanning”

That stops Avast using their SSL certificate and just leaves the pages alone.

Thank you for the reply. Unfortunately we have disabled the Web Shield and it still blocks the sites.
