I’m getting an obnoxious alert every 10 minutes. It says
“We’ve aborted connection on cosmeticsrc.com because it was infected with Other:Malware-gen [Trj].”
How can I stop these alerts?
Hi jeanne.bab,
Haven’t we been here before. Read here: https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=231517.msg1531900#msg1531900
a complete removal of Chrome, followed by running CCleaner, followed by a cold boot of the machine before reloading Chrome, provided satisfactory results.
If however you feel you need help from a qualified remover to get you through such procedures,
post whatever logs are requested for here, see: https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=194892.0
Have a nice day and a fully cleansed Google Chrome browser that again feels fresh.

Sorry. I’m not very computer savvy. Are you suggesting I follow the procedure to remove Chrome???
Hi jeanne.bab
Proceed exactly as is written there in the Quote. That does not demand rocket technology, does it?
I wrote that whenever you do not feel up to that routine, you could wait for a qualified remover to show up in the thread,
and do it under guidance. As they say in Scotland “easy peasy”,
