Avast VPN blocking Internet connection

Hello,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

As per the issue description you are unable to access internet sites after enabling Avast VPN on your system. This could be if your security software is restricting it to get connected or accessing internet.

So, I would suggest you to Disable Security software temporarily
and see if it brings any difference.



Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you shouldn't disable your antivirus software. If you
have to temporarily disable it to install other software, you should re-enable it as soon as you're done. If you're connected to the Internet or a network while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

If issue persists, try the steps provided below and see if it helps you to fix the issue.

Method 1

As you are unable to open some websites then, there might be a chance that the website is not compatible to Internet Explorer. So, I would suggest you to open those websites in compatibility view and see if it helps.

• 
  Open Internet Explorer.
  
• 
  Open website which is getting blocked.
  
• 
  Press alt key to open tool bar.
  
• 
  Now click on tools.
  
• 
  Then click on Compatibility view settings.
  
• 
  You will see the name of website
  under Add this website, so click on add
  to add this website.
  
• 
  Close the window and restart your computer.
  

Try the below mentioned methods and see if it helps you to fix the issue.

If issue still persists you may try to trust those websites by following the steps mentioned below.

Step 1: Open the trusted sites
