I keep getting the notification
Avast has blocked “http://wpad.browserupdatecheck.in/wpad.dat ” from 2 different sources
“C:\Windows\System32\svchost.exe” and
“C:\Program Files\Alwil Software\Avast5\ng\ngtool.exe”.
I have done full scans with both Malwarebyte Anti-Malware and the Avast program and have had zero infected files yet the notifications won’t stop. In fact they continued the entire time the scans were running!!
Please help
