Virtualbox traffic appears as avast traffic
For some reason, in per app bandwidth, Virtualbox's network traffic is seen as avast's network traffic. I do have avast installed, but why is Whatpulse thinking avast is doing the traffic, not Virtualbox?

RE: Virtualbox traffic appears as avast traffic
The client looks for the internet stream and the program that opened it, is it possible that you're using avast as a firewall? It may proxy all traffic through the program, which basically means avast is actually the one doing the traffic..

All other applications appear just fine under per-app bandwidth, just not VirtualBox. |

I've experienced this myself. It's a 'feature' of the Web Shield component of Avast.
