hey,
recently i installed a new firewall called comodo, when i was surfing i checked on the log and saw that avast was sending and receiving packets instead of ie, avast had about 95% traffic share and ie only had 5%, there’s nothing really wrong happening but i just wanted to know why’s avast doin the dirty work for ie? i could learn alot from your explanation :), thank you!!!
Welcome to the forum!
It is not dirty…it is very nice that avast is doing the work 
Read the link that chocholo gave you, and you will learn more about the “dirty work” 
thanks guys ;), especially to chocolo for the link, now i know why i dont see ie on my firewall log :), thanks for the useful info!!!
