Problems following Windows 8.1 update

Avast Free Antivirus / Premium Security
1

Hi All,

I upgraded a PC to Win8.1 from 8 today and since then I have been unable to use any browsers. After trying many things, such as renewing the drivers for wifi and LAN, I dropped my AVAST shields and everything worked again.

I have them dropped right now, otherwise I couldn’t type this.

The strange thing is that everything was fine before with 8.0 but not now. I have uninstalled and reinstalled AVAST and the problem is the same.

I’m going to post this and then try which of the shields work and which don’t. I’ll reply when I have the answer.

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

TT

OK… so after switching them all off and back on again, everything works.

Ignore this message! Unless the problem returns when I will revive it.
