Hi,
We need more info about the issue. What you exactly meant by “internet connection resets”.
Dose that mean, you are unable to visit websites when the avast! Web-Shiled is enabled?

When surfing if i active web shield it immediately throws up a connection reset page in the browser each time i refresh or start a new page"
I’ve tried to disable a combination of options for web shield but this does not help.

Hi,
Try this…
avast! GUI → Real-Time Shileds → Web-Shileds → Main Settings → Uncheck Web Scanning and Check Scan traffic from well know browzer processes only.
Please update us with results.

you mean it works when you turn off firewall ?
delete all avast rules in your firewall and create new…

Maybe I misundertood your suggestion to the OP, but that seems almost like disabling the web shield.
