I have Avast 4.8 professional installed on a Acer Aspire 8920G laptop running on VISTA and had Disabled the user account security in Vista… Had no problems for a week or so but NOW I do.
I CANNOT access many websites, it idles forever sometimes the page opens most times it goes into an error as below.
Not sure where the problem is I can access many sites but even to post in this forum took me 30 minutes and tried many times because mostly i am getting this error:
"Network Error (tcp_error)
A communication error occurred: “”
The Web Server may be down, too busy, or experiencing other problems preventing it from responding to requests. You may wish to try again at a later time."
For assistance, contact your network support team. …end of error
Can someone help? I spent another 20 minutes to post here again.
Is this related with Avast? I checked and have no virus.
Why on most websites pages open instantly while on others including this one
I get above error, page idles for a long time before either goes into error or finally opens?
Disable System Restore and then reenable it again.
Clean your temporary files.
Schedule a boot time scanning with avast with archive scanning turned on. If avast does not detect it, you can try DrWeb CureIT! instead.
Use SUPERantispyware, MBAM or Spyware Terminator to scan for spywares and trojans. If any infection is detected, better and safer is send the file to Quarantine than to simple delete than.
