Check the log file to see what avast has found.

Avast log files says nothing about deleted unreputable browser add-ons.Starting to wonder if Avast itself is the bug with this unreputable browser add-ons report.Only on one computer but not the other one who have the same os and software installed.

The bcu log file will show what is detected.

If you click on the resolve, it should also show you what was found.

I get the same and when I click to see what I just get a blank page.
This is happening time after time and it fixes nothing

I have the same problem.
Please advise if I’m wrong with my statements.

i guess the file you mention is called BCUEngine-trace.log and is in the directory C:\ProgramData\AVAST Software\Avast\log

The only content you (or at least I) find looks like this below.

I also do believe, that the problem comes from one of my only 3 plugins I have installed:

Avast Online Security (if this would be the case, then please fix the bug :P)
Avast Safe Price (looks like I will already deactivate it 8))
NoScript (but please, if this would be a dangerous plugin, then you are just paranoid :o)

I certify - no other plugin or extensions are activated.

Would be curious to know if anybody else can confirm this.
