Title: avast error or virus?
Post by: REDACTED on March 19, 2018, 08:07:12 PM
avast generates an audio signal about the virus, but finds nothing and shows no notification. As if nothing had happened About once every 3 hours.

The first time faced the such, what could it be?

I tried completely uninstall and then download new and install. The result has not changed.

That's not a clean install. Follow the instructions posted.
