I’ve been having this problem with avast giving me pop-up warnings periodicaly during the day.
It happens whatever I do,i dont even have to be on the computer,no programs need to be running but it will still give me the warning.
I have posted in a different subforum and they have directed me here,so here’s a link with more details. http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=93781.0
And here’s a screenshot http://oi44.tinypic.com/2yud8d3.jpg
You have posted them in the Logs to assist in cleaning malware topic (with the bold red text not to post them there) they should be posted here as the other posts will be removed shortly. I will copy them here and remove the others.
Sorry Dave, but the instructions from esseyboy (and yourself) are already as clear as they can be.
And 98% of the users understand quite well what to do.
I feel that by putting it in the instructions to visit the topic, give an early notice of how to proceed before they even visit the topic, just another reminder.
It takes nothing other than a modification of your copy and paste text and if it helps stop it. Then we don’t get this ping pong time wasting in the topic about not posting in the Logs to assist in cleaning malware topic and no need to subsequently clean that up.
[*]Then click the Run Fix button at the top
[*]Let the program run unhindered, reboot the PC when it is done
[*]Open OTL again and click the Quick Scan button. Post the log it produces in your next reply.
First off,sorry for being retarded and posting in the wrong thread,once i read the instructions i realized it was moronic to post there since there was a las vegas style warning not to,i was just in a huge rush and performed the scans as quick as i could as i had to leave.
Secondly,here’s the attachment of the log performed after doing everything essexboy said.
Once i restarted and before doing the quick scan another log appeared,should i post it as well?
When you are up to your ass in alligators the last thing on your mind is draining the swamp.
Same happens when you are infected, reasoning seems to go out of the window. So we can help when giving the link to using the information and tools not to attach the logs in the advice topic.
This needs further analysis by a malware removal specialist:
Go to this topic http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=53253.0 for information on Logs to assist in cleaning malware. [b]Use the information about getting and using the tools and attach the logs here, not in the LOGS topic[/b].
I should probably inform you that the problem has stopped.
Still i would like info on what was causing it if possible?
Thanks a bunch,and again sorry for being tard with the posting and all.
