got Avast. Then I get a “scan” thst says i have 108 registry errors. On a BRAND NEW computer. I called the number thinking as it only came on after I joined Avast it must be related. IT IS NOT. The company took control of my computer. wanted to charge me at least 200 dollars to have access to my computer. I decided no I needed to think about it. I can no longer access the internet except through chrome (which they installed) Doing further digging the lmi1 website is NOT theirs. They work through them. (poorly) but my computer posted the “pages” all are from The PhoneSupport Pvt., Ltd company of India. No local US numbers to complain to them so far. They are known for bundling unwanted software on their products. I can get some removal tools but am no extremely reluctant to add any programs. If any one has any ideas or fixes please let me know. I’ll post anything else I find
