the other day while on a site.[only window opened at the time]
While I was on the site,an Avast window came up ,bottom right,said it was scanning a ‘suspicious’ file-then Quickly said everything was “OK”.
I closed the site i was on and scanned -first with Malwarebytes-which found a trojan !so i was able to rid of it.then…ran a full AVAST scan.
My questions…
First-is it best to stay clear of the site I was on when I go it?
or is it now safe to go back-since malwarbytes got rid of the trojan?
AND why didn’t AVAST block it like it has blocked ‘bugs’ in the past ?
i have since updated my AVAST [couple days ago] after someone here let me know how to chk and do that.
What was it that MBAM found ?

i deleted it -so i only know it was a trojan.
Normally its put to quarantine.
Open the interface and click the quarantine on top in the window.
