I use Microsoft Sql Server Management Studio for work, (open)VPNing into work network and connecting to our databases.  After installing AVG internet security, I could no longer connect to my databases.  After disabling everything and re-enabling one at a time, I discovered that for some reason, AVG Payments (Fake Website Shield) protection is keeping me from connecting to my databases via Sql Server Management Studio - why the heck would that be?
