Last week when I was downloading Avast free to my win7 system - malwarebytes blocked 2 pieces of the download.— onclickads.net and popcash.net. Does anyone know anything about this stuff. It only occurred as I was downloading. Now, however when I go online to various sites, they both come up and are blocked. One is categorized as fraud and the other malware. I am not thrilled with this situation. Would like some input and info from the Avast people please. Thanks very much.
You never mentioned from where you downloaded Avast Free from?
As I recall, the Avast site. Avast.com download. Not another site like filehippo or something like that.
Can someone tell me what’s going on with this Avast download??? The two bad files keep getting blocked by Malwarebytes but I want them to go away. Can someone tell me how to get rid of them. I am going to delete and go to another AV if I don’t hear from someone. I like Avast but I am not sure I should keep it on my system. Thanks very much.

I have the latest version already. That is where that malware came thru to my system. Should I uninstall and start over? Please advise.
