I have used Avast free antivirus for years and its rated very highly - https://www.avast.com/en-gb/index#pc

I found the TT SuperSafe Boost is this what you are using?

Could i ask members not to use the thread to vent past frustration with Talk Talk (one post removed already) this is a specific question about their antivirus package and access to this site, thanks.

@Chippy_Tea yes that’s what I have ,it works even better now I can access the site
It gives me the ability to control what the kids have access to on the internet on their devices
I can add 8 devices and have individual control on each device
