Game First III Problems on Maximus VII Hero

I am just posting this in the forum for anyone that seems to be having problems with their lan port. Having the Game First program running seems to kill network connectivity. This problem has happened on my first motherboard and my replacement and I have finally figured out the problem. I am waiting on Asus for an official response. Also when it is on and my network connection was working it would limit my bandwidth to whatever the settings was for the program (default 10mb/s up and down) because for some reason the speed test was not working for me. I hope this information is useful to anyone with this problem.

These problems were encountered on fresh installations of windows both times, with the lan driver working fine up until installing the rest of the software from the motherboard disk. The program would also cause my computer to lock up.

I just built a new PC with Asus Hero VII. WIndows 8.1. Game first III conflicted with avast and wouldnt let me open webpages and my downloads were getting corrupted. My Games wouldn't update with Game first installed and avast running. I had to disable avast to get it to update but I was still getting corrupted downloads. I found this thread and uninstalled game first III and everything is working now. No more issues. Does anyone even use Game First III?

I was getting an awful lot of problems with my Internet stuff : Dreamweaver CS5 couldn't finish its uploads, a lot of downloads in Firefox were never finished & some pages were all badly displayed, plus got corrupted download through Unity plugin.
All seem to have been fixed by uninstalling latest version of GameFirst... Which by the way didn't seem to do much as it was not saving my preferences for the running programs (ie: high/low priorities).
