This has already been explained.
With installing avast,
you agreed to the EULA and that means you gave avast permission to perform a forced update if they believe it is needed.
Here is just one thread about it:

Personally, I think that if people are having problems with the update and are unhappy that they should each voice their displeasure as a form of customer feedback. The automatic update has been problematic for lots of people and caused even more problems.
Edit: @eddy: How is aggressively telling several people who are upset that their system is either slower than molasses or in my case unable to boot because of an automatic update that they didn’t explicitly ask for and agree to helpful? You’re just upsetting everybody more from what I can see. Yes maybe it was in an agreement but perhaps there should have been some type of widespread notification of the details of when this was to occur. I’d have uninstalled personally so that it wouldn’t screw my system to the point where I have a paperweight instead of a computer now.
