Byond problems on new computer with Windows 10

Are you using Avast? Otherwise it sounds like a horrible driver issue taking everything down with it

This was my problem all along. Thank you. I feel silly for not realizing it sooner. I was messing with windows firewall settings and Malwarebytes but not this, I guess I sort of forgot I was using Avast since I haven't been hearing those audible updates that they used to do a couple years ago. Still though... what a waste of time. This is probably the biggest and most time-wastey mistake I've made in the last couple months.
