Dear support,
I’m having the same problem. When the avast! Web scanner is on, I hardly get to any page in IE 7.0 or FF 1.5.0.6. Usually the browser is ‘waiting for reply’ after ‘website has been found’ but it keeps waiting and waiting and eventually nothing happens. The problem started some 2 weeks ago when my computer got quite slow for no apparent reason and kept freezing after some 5 minutes of restarting it (Win XP Pro, Win Firewall, just basic applications+Avast professional (using ADNM), LAN on DSL). I noticed that after installing newest windows updates the freezing problem went but no Internet access problem has started. When I stop avast! Web scanner, I can browse anything I want, when I start it, nothing at all. The very interesting thing is that the folder C:\Program Files\Alwil Software\Avast4CLI has been created some 2 weeks ago when I, trust me, didn’t touch avast at all. Folder C:\Program Files\Alwil Software\Avast4Client is there as well, created many months ago when I, using ADNM, installed it at first.
Here is the log:

After 2 minutes of waiting for www.zoznam.sk webpage with message ‘Waiting for reply’ I decided to stop the service and bring up the log.
Thank you for reply,
