Very odd, one user has just bought a new PC and installed a fresh version of AVAST and it is blocking even the simplest of downloads and the only way to stop it is by disabling it for 10 minutes.

I'm starting to get the feeling AVAST is broken and it might be time to re-examine AVG! which is good, only now my own website like buttons don't show and it seems impossible to turn it of, I change the settings with the sliders but AVAST just ignores me and continues to block my own site. I have checked the web shield and changed the action setting to ask, but it makes no difference.Īny ideas what is wrong with the latest version of AVAST.Īs an aside, at home, I have found the webshield blocks all Facebook tracking, Google tracking, Google analytics etc. I cannot see anything in quarantine or anything related to AVAST blocking these downloads and I also cannot see how to stop AVAST from automatically taking this action, it surely shouldn't be doing anything like this without a request, but the user receives no popup messages asking them if they want the DL blocked. I have had to get the user to disable AVAST for 10 minutes (defeating the point of AV protection), before they can run the remote connection so I can have a look. It is only the latest version of AVAST that is causing all these problems, how do I stop it? However, I am being inundated with support calls that users cannot download legitimate files from the net, nor will genuine install programs download and run, and I can't even connect via my remote desktop support software, as AVAST is blocking the download and deleting it. I have used AVAST for many years and have always recommended it to my users for their home PC's.

Why keep getting popup avast webshield blocked ad site
