Here’s what worked for me while using the avast! Internet Security software package
Problem: Our webhost with its online, interactive design templates kept giving me the “Aw, Snap” message when using Chrome.
Solution: If you are very confident that there is no problem with the website, then do the following
- Open avast! user interface
- Click on “Settings” and enter password if you’ve set up that
- Select “Active Protection”
- Find “Web Shield” and click the gear icon (settings) and again use password if needed
- Click on “Script exclusions” and check the box labeled “URLs to exclude:”
- Enter the URL/web domain - e.g. “mywebsite.com” or whatever the domain is where your Chrome keeps saying “Aw, Snap”
- Click “Okay” on the open avast! windows and close the last avast! window manually
- Restart your computer and give your contentious website another shot with Chrome. In my case, it works beautifully.
WARNING: Do not use this method if the website/webpage is unfamiliar to you. Your browser may keep getting hung-up because there really are malicious scripts on the website - – even with big name, well known websites (Yahoo! circa 2006 comes to mind).
And that’s all there is to it! At least that’s what worked for me
Good luck!
