Bri,

When you click on the Avast icon, and the Avast On-Access Scanner panel opens…
Are you viewing the normal or expanded window?
Also, In which Provider is Avast telling you that there is a virus or are you reading the “virus” under Last Infected?
NORMALLY, when Avast detects a virus, an alert window will open giving you options to Ignore/Delete or Move to chest.
I have not scene this behavior with Avast.
