Hi Vlk,

I have the cache turned off in Firefox, as my broadband connection is fast enough to not require it. Refreshing the site that work ok, of course, has no effect on them; they still work fine.

The following sites do not work in Firefox with On-access protection:

www.microsoft.com
www.avast.com
www.bbc.co.uk

RE: time-out. No error message. (Not sure how to send a screen dump in this forum) It’s just that at the bottom left of the Firefox screen, it says “Transferring data from www.avast.com” and then nothing happens. It just sits there forever and never does load the site. If I refresh it, of course the browser window just goes blank for the refresh and the message in the bottom left still says “Transferring data from www.avast.com” and continues to sit there.

If I then turn off on-access protection, suddenly the avast web site loads up instantly.

Hope this helps.

Murray
