Title: Avast Alert
Post by: mad9292 on March 03, 2022, 03:23:33 AM

Randomly out of nowhere I keep getting alerts that Avast has blocked something since it was infected with Malware. But the thing is, I wasn't browsing on the site that it claimed I was on. I was idle on a page I normally visit when I get the alert. Says it aborted connection on 1d.tlu.dl.delivery.mp.microsoft.com because it was infected with Win32:Malware-gen. This is the code at the bottom of the alert if anyone can help: d79faabb0afb/220302.2013-0600

Now it's: 9704695c09bd/220302.2026-0600

Please help since I am getting tired of getting these alerts when I'm not doing anything.
Thanks in advance for the help.

In case anyone from AVAST is reading this thread, I have been getting the same alerts today. In fact, just trying to connect to the same page with the message I'm replying to caused the same Avast threat noitification. See attached image of the actual alert.

I keep getting these today as well. I'm not even doing anything with my laptop, chrome is just sitting open on facebook while I'm cooking
