I’m done with Avast. I can’t believe how fast my PC is now since I deleted it. I never even knew my PC was slow when using it. Comodo did not fix my Avast issues…At first I thought installing it did “something” but it didn’t but I’ve just decided to leave it up for now.
My comment about Norton was out of frustration. I could be tortured for days and I wouldn’t install it.
If it was my firewall settings, then what could have changed it as of Feb 21st/2011? I didn’t install any programs then. All I know is my internet worked with web shield deactivated (both IE and Chrome) and wouldn’t work properly with it activated.
The ebay issue was just bizzare. I could do a normal search but not an advanced search. Also certain preset search links that I have for ebay would not work, yet I could do the same search if I changed something very slightly. For example, I could search “Sony stereo receiver” but I could not search “Sony receiver”, without getting that error 101. Essentially, many things that I had prior searches on would not work but new searches would. Just ridiculous!
I’m not sure what to install to protect from web surfing. I’m mostly concerned about malware on ad banners.
