I am also having this problem on Firefox (Avast Free, Win7). I have no special toolbars and I have removed all addons but the Avast Ad Blocker and still the message pops up. The Avast message is pretty useless if it doesn’t explain exactly where within Firefox that the malware is coming from. I’m also wondering why I would need to download and install something to clean the infection as suggested by essexboy - isn’t Avast supposed to clean infections?
I have reported this as a false positive but that doesn’t seem to have done anything. Perhaps it’s not a false positive but if it isn’t then Avast should be able to tell me where it’s coming from.
