Getting the browsers to cease can either require waiting for a while, or really driving them hard. However, if I turn off webshield, and then exit and restart the browsers, they work fine. I can exit the browsers, and restart them, and they will still not be working. They seem to work fine for a while, but eventually they will stop. When webshield is enabled, my browsers will eventually cease working. OK, I have now installed the beta as per forum directions, and I am running avast. something pretty specific for a particular configuration. However, I'd say that most issues in 4.8 have been fixed - and now we're receiving one or two reports of a problem, from the user base of 50 millions - i.e. The thing is that the described problems are not very common - if the problem appeared on every computer running the same OS and firewall, then it would be easy (to simulate in our lab and fix). so, it would be useful to confirm that the fix really works (or find out that it doesn't, and then the search for the solution would continue). However, it's really hard to say for sure if it's the same. Here is a similar problem that seems to have been fixed yesteday (already included in the latest beta): If this is the case, then I'd say there's a good chance to be fixed (as the problem would probably be in the new part of the code. Your symptoms seem to be different - so, it may be a new issue in avast! 4.8. I really don't know if it affects current versions as well - as the developers can't do anything about it on avast!'s side. It's been caused by bugs in ZoneAlarm and was an issue for quite some time. I know there were some issues between avast! and ZoneAlarm Pro privacy blocking (or what's the feature name). To Nightshade: You are clearly running not only a whole different release of zonealarm, but clearly on a different operating system as well, as the version you are running will not run on Windows Vista. I just don't want to do it if nothing is going to happen anyway. Am I wrong? Is it really the case that if this issue between zonealarm and webshield exists in the current beta, it might be fixed before a release? If that is really true, I am happy to be a test bed for you. To Igor: I had assumed that the release of your beta software was so imminent that there was no chance that something this seemingly large could be part of it. I'd just like to say that I use Zone Alarm free 6.1.744.000, and I don't experience any problems at all. The thing is that if your problem is not fixed in the beta, and you'll find out after the final version is released, you'll probably have to wait for quite some time before another update is sent out. I'm not aware of any problems with the beta at the moment (and quite a few problems were fixed, so you can consider the beta to be better than the build you have).
