Viruses and worms

Hello, Alwil team :wink:

Please look at this picture ???

If Avast5 have this adware in definition files database, why it failed to detect it in the system?

I am using Avast Pro (Trial 29 days left).

Did you check the pup option? If not, do so and rescan.
It seems to be ‘only’ adware. :wink:

Where is the pup option Sir? Could you do to it step by step so that i could find it? I’m using avast 5.0.507… i tried to scan relevant knowledge yesterday but didn’t get it on the result. I use Malwarebytes’ Anti-Malware to detect and wipe it. I don’t know if i did something wrong with my Avast because i remember last time, it catches relevant knowledge on other PC’s that i scan.

For the on demand scans (eg. full scan)

  • in the avast UI click on details in full scan, in the last line you can toggle pup (on/off)
