ec.rr.com UPDATE I downloaded Spybot Search and Destroy on the laptop and ran it on this PC. All it turned up were tracking cookies. I got a suggestion on another forum to try disabling security software. Worked like a charm. This is the second time that Avast has caused problems with my...

Last night I started having problems using the internet on this computer. YouTube will stop playing on any page. (I have a 30/5mbit connection) Pages that require SSL will give an error in Opera or will just display completely blank in Firefox. Downloads do not complete or are corrupted when...
