Hi
I was wondering if someone could help advise me.
I received a popup from the webshield saying that Avast had blocked some malware. There seemed to be a few popups in succession but I was unable to click on them in time. I was unable to close my browser immediately, but think that was more to do with google chrome performance issue. Then I noticed that the Avast icon showed me as ‘unsecured’ - it appeared to have turned off.
I closed the browser and was able to restart Avast but was suspicious, so turned off wireless. I then rebooted into safe mode with networking, enabled wireless and ran a trendmicro housecall online quick scan - no issues found.
All seems to be okay now, and there are 16 entries in the webshield.txt report that match up with when I experienced the issue, but I am still concerned that the malware detected appeared to have stopped avast working, even though it said it had blocked it in some of the popups.
Is there a way to view the popup history and is there anything else you’d recommend I do to ensure I am secure? I have since updated the product version to the latest.
Thanks
Bob
