Hi,
I was researching on google when suddenly one of the links I clicked on had a infection detected by avast web shield called "JS:Redirector-QE [TRj]". does anyone know what this infection is and how severe it is?
once I got the popup note I quickly closed the website and deleted my cache and cookies. Is my computer still infected with this threat right now? Is there anything else I need to do to remove it? What can I do to keep my computer clean from the threat right now, or did I already do what's needed? Also, in the webshield section of the avast application, do I have to click clean history to remove this threat completely out of my system?
please help, thanks!
(I've attached some screen captures if it helps you to understand my situation to provide your help!! thanks!)

Hi,
The avast! blocked the threat so there's no need to do anything. You are safe. The toast popup is there just to inform you.
