Hello yelloweye,
Where was the Avast Technician contacted? How did he reach his conclusion and that it would take $179.00 US to "correct the problem".
Did you know Avast has a free forum, one topic picked at random: Safezone Browser
Best regards.

http://www.avast.com/en-ca/support : The $179.00 is for one year unlimited tech support.
No I did not know about their forum.
Did you catch the message that Avast is no longer using the name "SafeZone Browser"?
They are saying that it is called "SafeZone" and that it is not a browser" .

On the first call the tech said that the problem, " no video playback in SafeZone ", was caused because " Spybot and McAfee "
were on my system, he gave no explanation. He ran a program called HitMan Pro which reported " no problems found ". I refused
the payment and terminated the call. The second called Technician gave no reason for the " no video playback in SafeZone ",
other than to say that SafeZone is not a browser... So what it seems that they were/are saying is that SpyBot and McAfee
are the problem for locking out Adobe Flash Player, but " SafeZone is not a browser " even after I uninstalled SpyBot and McAfee
and Hitman Pro found no problems... I do not know what that means in Virtual terms, what/how virtual " SafeZone " is doing/performing
as part of a Avast antivirus program.
Virtual Antivirus...?
" Virtual Antivirus SafeZone Browser " is what I am looking for.
The techs also run reg cleaners and other third party Windows cleaners,
but of course anyone can do that as well.
What part does Spybot play in the Virtual environment, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heartbleed ?
USB3 ready, ENVY is quick and clean especially driving a wireless Internet ENVY 4502 $47.00 printer. Windows 8.1
preinstalled is a bit of a clunker but plenty good enough...
HP TouchSmart takes some getting used to.
