My email has been getting bombarded the last few days from club members of the Clubs where I've done presentations

"The avast! detection is because you appear to be running the following:

http://software.visicommedia.com/en/products/antiphishing/Uninstall visicom and your problem should be gone..

You may also have the following Toolbar on your system:
Blekko search bar by visicom media which needs to be uninstalled.
