What happened to Avast Web Rep?

SiteAdvisor is working, WOT is working but all of a sudden, Avast Web Rep isn’t working in any of my browsers. I’m in Chrome right now and the Web Rep icon is lit up green in the title bar and looks like it’s working; it is enabled on the extension page. But when I do a search it is not working.

Same here for me using the beta 1469, no search icons for webrep.

I am using 1466.

It works here.

I just tried it again to make sure, and it is not working. It was previously, but no longer. And the strangest part is that the icon is lit up, not grayed out or anything. By all appearances it should be working.

Confirmed for the beta.

Same problem…on XP SP3 running AIS .1466 with 121011-0 update using latest Chrome, Web Rep appears green on browser, but NOT on search results like others reported above. At least for me, problem showed up with the latest def update this morning. All the correct boxes for Web Rep are turned on in Avast and Chrome and unchecking/rechecking boxes didn’t solve issue.

Webrep is working fine here. 7.0.1466 on both Chrome and IE9.

No problem on my XP Pro system with the beta build 7.0.1469 for me with firefox 16.0 for Yahoo or Google searches.

Just checked my win7 netbook with avast 7.0.1466 with firefox 16.0 and strangely it doesn’t work there, some inconsistency here (as in others also reporting its working and others not working.)

Quite strange… ???

Meanwhile it also works with the beta. :slight_smile:

Not working for me in the latest beta

Mine is working on IE9 and Opera but not on Firefox.

same problem here, webrep works fine on IE8, but not on chrome 22.0.1229.94

I just checked Chrome, IE, Firefox and Pale Moon. Avast Web Rep does not work in any of them.

Works fine in IE, Firefox and Chrome. avast does not work with Pale Moon. Hopefully this will be addressed in future versions.
Since Pale Moon is basically a Firefox clone. I have noticed that the FF add-on “status 4evar” doesn’t work with Pale Moon due to a stability issue. :slight_smile:

Those using the 7.0.1469 beta might want to check out this topic (http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=106917.0) and see if they are also experiencing this repetitive scanning by the web shield, as it is linked to the webrep.

EDIT: Oops left out the link to the topic ;D

I am not using the beta. Still version 7.0.1466. Chrome has been my default browser for a little while now and it was working. As I mentioned, it shows up in green on the bar and appears to be activated, but nothing on the search pages.

Confirmed. Firefox 16.0 beta Chrome 23.0.1271.17 beta Pale Moon 15.2 beta ???

edit: it possibly could be the result of the latest vps update which will probably corrected in the next update. :slight_smile:

WebRep is (currently) working fine for me under 1466 in Firefox while browsing, although I’m sure we’ve all seen the occasional short-term outage.

I don’t remember ever seeing WebRep icons with search results. But my default for searches is Dogpile, and because that uses multiple search engines, that might affect how WebRep works. Or maybe I missed something in its (Webrep’s) settings.
