Default Virus??

Since yesterday I cannot connect with any net site unless I switch off my
antivirus Avast (payware version).
A few hours after, started to come out every 10 minutes a red popup from
Avast, telling that it has blocked a dangerous site:
DCOM EXPLOIT. Email and everything else works ok. I run a scanning of the
complete PC but nothing come up.
I run Advance System Care (registered) and nothing. But I cannot connect
with any brouser (Explore, Mozilla, Crome)
to internet. Are the two things related? Any body can help?
Thanks

It sounds like Avasy is your problem.

You say "Avast, telling that it has blocked a dangerous site" and add "DCOM EXPLOIT".

DCOM EXPLOIT is not a site, it is exploitation code. The question is where does it see
this and you seem to infer this occurs AFTER you "switchoff antivirus Avast".
