Last night Avast stopped me browsing again?

I updated to the release version 6.0.1000 when it was out and it's been running fine, even when I updated to SP1 x64 for Win7, but now the Web Shield has started blocking http again???

Downloaded the 6.0.1044 Beta and installed that and now I get a 30-60 second long pause before it initially connects to a website , once it's connected it seems fine but every time I load up IE9 for the first time it's this 'long pause before connect' issue?

Think it's time to look for another free AV, and not that bloated AVG either!!
