Hi. I have has Avast for about 2 years and never had any problems with it. Now it says that steam is malware because I have installed add-ons for left 4 dead 2. Add-ons which I installed over 3 months ago. I have gone into the settings and told it to make steam an exception to malware and told it to ask me before it does anything. I was hoping that one of the options would be “leave it alone for gods sake” but it decided that a good idea was to block a program used by more than 3 million people. So after many hours of swearing I tried to uninstall it. And found out there is no such button for such an action. Then I ended the program in the task manager and then went to the program files and tried to delete it.Windows however thought that avast was open in a window. Even though it wasn’t and I just ended the program.
So what do I do?
