After a recent update, I cannot browse any webpages… the web browser shows a blank page on whatever URL address, no matter using firefox or IE…
then I try to stop the Web Shield in the Real-Time Shields tap, everything goes back to normal and the browser works fine…
turn on the Web Shield again, no webpage can be displayed…
I am using windows xp with avast free version with version no. 5.0.594
I do not use proxy and I am using zonealarm free firewall… The problem is that the firewall denies internet access for avastService…
After allowing it in the firewall, now I can turn on Web Shield and browsing webpages…
