Why would I create a new thread for the EXACT same issue?..
Also, to Bitodd, I’m not getting redirects, just the Avast popups, try going to Internet Explorer > Tools > Internet Options > Connections Tab > LAN settings
Make sure the “Use a Proxy” box is not checked. If it is, it would explain the redirects, but Avast may still bug you for something underlying like a rootkit or keylogger, which is what I’m still trying to figure out.
