posting this up for a m8

ever since i downloaded avast 4.6 pro antivirus my internet connection has been wierd. Some links/popup links...ect dont work. really strange things such as on ebay theres a small search bar on the top right, that has dissapeared. It lets me write a new topic on vbulletin boards lets me write a title but wont let me write in the big box below. things like http://score.planetfootball.com/ that link dont work when i click on any of the boxes, comet.co.uk that link dont work right either it wont let me view prices, or once clicked on a item it wont let me purchase anything. more or less every website dont work right. ive disbaled avast AND zonealarm and its still the same, though im 110% sure its avast causing it. i thought i need to download java.com but i went there and it says i have the latest version. what could it be ? ive not touched my internet security settings and thats all fine. how do i overcome this issue?

im getting a very similer problem as well, I can open some websites, and others wont open at all ! I think my problem is down to a new wireless set up.

sorted now thanks ballweed ;)

i got these problems cos when i uninstalled norton antivirus 2004 pro it doesnt uninstal it properly. causing major probs. had to goto the symantec website to get a removal tool.
