Title: Avast slideup question & compression bomb ???
Post by: Riley7 on July 23, 2014, 03:35:52 AM

I just went to pandora.com and got this slide up from Avast Free (see attached).
Why and what was it trying to tell me.

Also, sometimes when right click scanning .rar files Avast says they are compression bombs. What is this supposed to mean?

Thanks.

1. It's a promo for SecureLine (VPN).
2. It's a highly packed archive, nothing to worry.
