Strange looking icon similar to avast

Hey i keep seeing this icon popup in my tray and its a blue ball with arrows that spin around. it pops up at least once a minute but anytime i try and get my cursor near it, it disappears. seems a bit sketchy, anyone know what it is?

Can you take a screen shot of it and upload the picture to the forum

This is the avast VRBD icon that appears when the VRDB file is being created so the timing of its appearance will depend on the choice you have made for VRDB creation. The icon appears in the systray at this time even if you have chosen to have the VRDB icon merged with the main avast icon.

Let me add a bit to the explanation … if you’re set up to generate the VRDB “when idle” (i.e., no mouse or keyboard input), the generation will pause and the ball will temporarily disappear if you move the mouse or press a key. That’s why you can’t “catch” the ball with the cursor.
