I have zonealarm free firewall and when I installed avast a message popped up asking yes or no whether to allow webshield transparent mode proxy or not. I chose yes, but now I have discovered that I should have chosen no instead. I have no idea how to change it back. Can someone help me please.
If you answered incorrectly, Locate the line in the avast4.ini file containing ZoneAlarmCompatibility=1 and delete that line (avast will ask again, answer NO) or change the value to =0. Save the edited avast4.ini file.
Use a text editor and edit the avast4.ini file, the default installation location is C:\Program Files\Alwil Software\Avast4\DATA\avast4.ini (I would advise you copy avast4.ini before editing it, just in case).
