Error 101 Connection Reset

I have several sites that I cannot access, due to the Error 101 connection reset problem. I have used Chrome, IE, and Firefox, and it is all the same. I was able to access some of these sites, once I had uninstalled Avast, but as soon as I re-installed, the error returned. I am using the Avast home security suite. I have tried disabling features individually, but that does not make a difference. The only time it worked was when I had uninstalled Avast all together.

Is there a fix for this yet? I have scoured the net and see that this is a very common issue. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello cori27 and welcome: What version of Avast are you using and what is your OS?

Which is your firewall? Old antivirus (before avast)?
