OK. Rebooted. Even though I had to click on “Show Desktop” after rebooting, now everything seems to work fine. Let’s wait a couple of days to see if the problem (hope not) shows up again. Thank you very much!
No need to wait couple of days. Couple of minutes/hours will be enough.
OK then. I’ll get back to you later on today. Thanks a million.
Edit: Until now everything seems to be working just fine.

Your help would be much appreciated!

Hi,
I’ve been having a similar problem when logging onto my computer, with Avast popping up with several (usually 14 messages) that it has blocked a harmful webpage such as simplesmartscan, optiguardzip, alwaysisobar etc all with the SVCHOST.exe process. I’ve run full avast scans, malwarebites, hitman pro etc however the problem seems to persist.
After reading all the previous posts it seems that each solution is computer specific, so would someone be able to help please. It would be much appreciated.
