Like everyone else, I keep getting the popup. Specifically it says its coming from opticized.net or something and affecting something like svchost.exe.
I bet you guys are getting sick of dealing with this, but any help would be really appreciated. Other than my laptop freezing every now and then I’m not seeing too much of a problem, but the popups are worrying me.
Logs are attached.
Having the same problem, waiting for advice…
Hmm, seems I missed you guys.
Sorry, I will inform the experts now for both of you :).
Thanks a lot 
I’m having the same problem, tried every program I can to remove, probably downloaded some bllsht program on the way. It’s getting very annoying now!
Let me know if the alerts cease after this

Save this as fixlist.txt, in the same location as FRST.exe
Run FRST and press Fix
On completion a log will be generated please post that
THEN
Please download AdwCleaner by Xplode onto your desktop.
[*]Close all open programs and internet browsers.
[*]Double click on AdwCleaner.exe to run the tool.
[*]Click on Scan.
[*]After the scan is complete click on “Clean”
[*]Confirm each time with Ok.
[*]Your computer will be rebooted automatically. A text file will open after the restart.
[*]Please post the content of that logfile with your next answer.
[*]You can find the logfile at C:\AdwCleaner[S1].txt as well.
Ok, done both those things now and the logs are attached.
Since running the fixes the pop up seems to have stopped!
I hope that’s done it. Thanks so much for your help. You rock 
If all is well tomorrow let me know and I will tidy up
Hi, everything still seems to be working fine. No more popups from Avast whatsoever.
Thanks so much for your help.
In that case methinks I will send you on your merry way
Subject to no further problems
I will remove my tools now and give some recommendations, but, I would like you to run for 24 hours or so and come back if you have any problems
Now the best part of the day ----- Your log now appears clean
