Just to chip in as a user here, I am using WPS v10.2.0.5820 (latest) and I have no blocked alerts from Avast on the said scripts.
Did you download the office software from Kingsoft themselves?

Thank you for posting a comment.
Did you install WPS Office 2013, 2016, or an individual piece of software (Writer, Spreadsheet, or Presentation) and when was it installed?
He stated he’s using the latest version.

Are you using WPS Office 2016 (or is there a newer version?) and what Operating System are you using?
Why aren’t you answering his question as to where you downloaded the installation file from ???
Yes, I installed WPS Office 2016 directly from the Kingsoft website but apparently it is an older version: http://www.kingsoftstore.com/kingsoft-office-freeware.html
Where was Version 10.2.0.5820 downloaded from?
No, the newest version is not listed on the left side of http://www.kingsoftstore.com/.
The latest version on that specific website is 10.1.0.5671, which is what I have installed.
How large is the Version 10.2.0.5820 download?-I cannot find any information on it.
From what I’ve found that is a beta version.

The reason that WPS was conflicting with Avast is because an older free version (10.1.0.5671) was installed that I had downloaded from the Kingsoft Store website several months ago.
After AntiVirusASeT mentioned that the latest free version was 10.2.0.5820, I went back to the Kingsoft Store website but the latest version is not yet listed. I did a Google search and found it in another section of the Kingsoft website.
I installed version 10.2.0.5820 and it runs like a dream without Avast blocking it.
Thanks for everyone’s support in resolving this issue.
