Sees like a catch-22 situation…
I closed/quit chrome. The file is not present: /Users/scott/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default/History Provider Cache
When I start Chrome, the Avast infection popup appears, telling me that it detected this trojan/virus, and has moved the file into the Chest. So, I never have an opportunity to remove the offending file. This is indicating to me that there is an active trojan that is running, trying to install this file when Chrome is launched. I also occasionally see this message when Chrome is being closed.
Does that make sense? How can I scan for this Trojan? Or is this some kind of false alarm?
