I’m having trouble connecting to my Whatsapp since I installed Avast…
Any help or suggestion?
Thanks
Joe
Which Avast product? What version? Which browser?
What problem? Without details, it’s impossible to answer your question.
Thanks for that heads-up الذكي, very informative and helpful.

Good morning Joe
Are you using the WhatsApp application oder the WhatsApp-Web version? If you’re using the WhatsApp-Web it’s possible that avast is using an adblocker which includes WhatsApp-Web.
In this case, you should go to your Browser Addon and define www.web.whatsapp.com as an exception, so that the programm doesnt identify the page as an possible ad.
I hope this helps, good luck!
This is probably related with a reply from Avast.

Hello everyone, just wanted to share that I had the same problem when using Whatsapp Web. Had to turn of the ad blocker and then reload the site, afterwards it worked perfectly. 
Same here, you have to go to your Adblocker and mark the page “Whatsapp” as an exception. I really hope this helps!
