Antivirus Live virus?

Ugh…so I can’t get rid of this virus, (well it may just be considered malware) which makes a supposedly antivirus software come up called AntiVirus Live. I did some research and discovered how to get it off my computer, but I guess I either went to another site and got it, or I just didn’t get rid of it the right way.

Does avast have an update for this? I am currently updated to date on the autoupdate through the avast software.

Thanks,

Brandon

Check out this thread http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=52866.0 It should take care of it.

It is rogue/scum ware delivering fake security alerts it isn’t a virus as such.

If you haven’t already got this software (freeware), download, install, update and run it and report the findings (it should product a log file).

Don’t worry about reported tracking cookies they are a minor issue and not one of security, allow SAS to deal with them though. - See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_cookie.
