Avast continuously blocking malicious URL

Avast keeps blocking malicious URL’s and I have done scans using Avast as well as Malwarebytes, but they have had little luck in finding the infections. I have tried running OTL, but it freezes whenever it starts ‘scanning firefox settings’. Any idea how to fix or get around this?

attach (not copy and paste) OTL and aswMBR logs http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=53253.0

if problems try run from safe mode…

OTL won’t finish scanning no matter what I do. Tried safe mode, and even completely uninstalled firefox and it still gets stuck at ‘scanning firefox settings’. Got the aswmbr log though.

the malware experts have more tools, check back tomorrow…

I let OTL run all night, and it finished at some point, so here is that log. What else do I need to do?

Just wait for an malware expert now. :slight_smile:

And how long does that generally take? Avast is no longer blocking anything at point.

OBS…seems your topic has been overlooked
