When I check the report file I see that the web shield does does not show it is running.
It shows that it started but that was yesterday and it shows it never stopped even after shutting down my laptop.
Given that there are some people reporting that the my.avast.com is reporting the web shield is off (not for my system) yet the program shows it is running. This may well be related to that bug.
That’s what I was thinking but I also thought it was worth reporting anyway.
