Hi all, I downloaded avast home edition and got it running. now that it is installed and running I cannot get into different web pages. My home page is yahoo yet it will not load. neither will msn however I can get into my account for classes. any one have any ideas. If I turn it off everything works fine. system is windows xp running firefox 2.0
What is your firewall (Zone Alarm Pro perhaps) ?
Does it allow ashWebSv.exe internet access ?
Don’t disable the whole avast protection, terminate the web shield provider as a temp measure.
Sorry should have put that in I am running comodo firewall version2.4.17.183
Just ensure that ashWebSv.exe has internet access.
checked that and it does
Delete the entry and force Comodo to ask again when you try to connect.
Though I don’t know if this will work as you report that you can access some sites, are the pages you can visit https (secure) ?
Check that you have the latest version of comodo, I know there have been some reported issues with it in the forums, so a forum search for comodo might reveal some more info.
