Avast alerts going crazy once I start up Chrome

system · 2015-05-28T01:01:28.000Z

It started about half an hour ago, Chrome closed out of the blue and Avast started going off, saying “Threat Detected!” The infections were either “Mal” or “Trj.” I’m currently doing a Quick Scan with Avast while I wait for Malwarebytes to finishing scanning so I can do the Boot Scan. Malwarebytes has found 46 threats, all being PUPs or Adware (A lot of SaveItCoupons have been popping up as well.) I don’t know a whole lot about computers, anyone have any idea what’s going on?

I didn’t get a screenshot of those first alerts, but this is what’s been popping up ever since I started up Chrome a second time.

Apologies for the late reply, the Boot Scan took a while. The alert didn’t go off when I started Chrome this time, but there’s still SaveItCoupons/GetDiscountApps ads everywhere.
