Does anyone know what I should change in the settings or add in the exclusions so I can get it to work

On April 4, you said "hmm tried switching off the fire wall didn't change anything......". What did you change now?

And: consult your Avast documentation how to enable outgoing connections.

I turned off the windows firewall
This time I disabled the avast web shields..... BUT not it won't work again and I added
http://localhost:8080/sabnzbd/* to the excluded web pages.
I can make it work by turning off Avast and then re-enabling it once I have made a connection

So you have two firewalls on your Windows system?

Well I didn't think I did but maybe I do I am running the windows one and as far as I know avast is just virus and web based protection..... I could be totally wrong here but......

I have experienced the same issue with SABNzbd stopping working with Internode.

I, however, am running on Linux. Things have been fine for ages (years).

I notice, trawling through my logs, that when I upgraded to 0.7.1, it stopped working, so it looks like I am downgrading to my previous version of 6.14.

Update: Reverting to 6.14 fixed the problem. SABnbsd 0.7.1 broke something.
