    What's this?


    I use Avast for internet security and have been getting this warning every day for the last week or so.

    Does anyone have any idea where this is coming from and have a way to stop it. Avast takes care of it. but I am getting tired of getting this warning so often.

    Looks like a malware warning to me. Maybe you visit iffy websites.

    If it helps:

    Check Avast Logs


    I'd suggest checking the Avast logs to get full details of the detection. Then it might be possible to solve the problem.

    You should be able to open the log files from this location:

    C:\ProgramData\AVAST Software\Avast\report

    I've posted the file location from memory as I've stopped using Avast. I know that it's possible to get a lot more details from the log files than you've posted in your screenshot.

    The file you're looking for should be named something like:

    WebShield.txt

    The info needed is the full URL and process path.
