Avast opens URL on every user login

I’m running Avast Small Office and every time a user logs in to a computer at our company Avast opens a URL on startup. I’ve tried searching for a setting in the Small Office Administration console that might be causing this but can’t seem to find it.

The URL never loads completely and just hangs.

Here’s an example of the URL:
https://program.avast.com/api/?action=2&p_aas=0&p_adc=0&p_adp=0000&p_age=413&p_cid=0&p_cnm=COMPUTERNAME&p_cpv=134219331&p_elm=30&p_fsh=16.0&p_hid=672db93f-ed26-403b-9a7a-81f9d98d5c43&p_idw=0&p_iid=0&p_inf=12&p_lan=1033&p_lci=1039&p_let=24&p_lex=529&p_lic=0&p_lid=is-is&p_lit=1&p_lng=en&p_lqa=0&p_lqe=0&p_lst=0&p_lsu=24&p_man=1&p_mdc=0&p_osv=6.1&p_pro=18&p_reh=697&p_rew=1296&p_vbd=1603&p_vep=8&p_ves=0&p_wdc=0&p_wnf=3

Any ideas how I can disable this? It really annoys all the users. Usually the URL just hangs which causes Chrome to stop responding as well.

Issue has been resolved, there’s a setting in Avast Expert Settings where you can disable this feature.

I can’t find a setting in the Advanced settings that might stop this - can you give me a little more information on the solution you discovered?
Thank you.
EDIT:
I did find it! Here’s the post that had the answer:
I thought I would put the solution into a different list of simple steps

  1. Logon to the dashboard/console of your Avast computer used to manage your network
  2. Click on network
  3. Click on “edit group settings”
  4. Click on “expert settings”
  5. In the very long list find the option “Show Chrome”
  6. Change the value = 0 (That’s zero)

Easy enough when you know how!
One thing though, you need to do this for each group you have systems in except “unmanaged”.
