Thank you for the info, Michael. 

Your settings(application rules) are made as per our recommendation and it appears that this issue is not caused by AVG. 

We request you to contact the support with which you're facing issues with the download. 

If you still think AVG is causing this, please disable AVG and check the status. To do so: Right click on AVG icon under system tray next to clock, click on toggle bar to disable AVG temporarily.

Thank you.

Hi, I have a download manager called Internet Download Manager (IDM). When i am on a web page and try and download a file AVG opens up the following http://127.0.0.1:1001/status/204+IDM
What should happen is that i stay on the web page from which i am downloading. This is what used to happen prior to installing AVG Ultimate.
How can i fix this. What do i have to do and how do i do it?
