Disabling the shields isn’t the way to go as it leaves you ZERO protection.

First we have to find what shield it is that is blocking it and avast doesn’t block as such, but scans an alerts to infection.
There is however a possibility that it could be the Behavior Shield as that is set to Auto Decide by default. Check the C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\AVAST Software\Avast\report\BehaviorShield.txt (XP) or C:\ProgramData\AVAST Software\Avast\report\BehaviorShield.txt (Vista, Win7) using notepad and see if there are any entries for the Ahn-Lab hackshield executable.
If so you can add the full path to that file in the trusted processes and see if that helps.
