Process: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explore…
Infection: “HTML:Script-inf”

Can someone please help me to figure out if this is valid? I have the most recent version, I have emailed support and recieved an email back that was sent to “virus” area of avast. I have scanned my computer and nothing comes up. I need to use the site…

thx

Hi,

Thank you for your response. It appeares that they might need to address some sort of an issue which is unfortunate since it is a great resource. Have a good night. :slight_smile:

  1. You’re welcome.
  2. It’s noon here, but have a good night. :slight_smile:

I can confirm that as I have been resolved as I was able to visit the page and the suspect script tag has now been removed (presumably by the webmaster), no avast alert.
