odd behaviour from instup?

so, noted that avast had created new folder into /setup for instup called New_110408f6, odd part is that instup exists in /setup and in /setup/New_110408f6 at same time, latter is one avast is trying to invoke but strange manner is that it keeps hammering firewall 2-3times a second nonstop for several minutes, feels almost like malign software at this point as it doesnt even bother wait to get pass …just endless hammering

  • Which version…?
  • OS…? (32/64 Bit…? - which SP/Build…?)
  • Other security related software installed…?
  • Which AV(s) did you use before Avast…?
