Guild Wars 2

For 1-2 weeks now i’ve had to switch from Google CHrome to any other browser to access any part of the guild wars 2 website. I usually use CCleaner to empty my Cache/Cookies/Session/Browser History e.t.c every few days – so considering everything is fresh there shouldn’t be any issues.

I’m in the U.K and my provider is BT (British Telecoms)

I found the issue, Avast Web Shield apparently doesn’t like it when chrome accesses anything guild wars 2 related for some reason.

If i disable web shield i can get on, however thats just a temporary fix. Even if i add the site to the exclusions list avast still blocks it somehow. I’m not sure if i’m adding the exclusion correctly, or if there is just a bigger problem.

Any help?

There are a few different places you can include exclusions. I use Avast, and all Shields, including Web Shield, and I have no issues with interacting with the game or any of ArenaNet’s websites.

Good luck.
