Title: Got a question about Avast
Post by: lobo601 on January 25, 2008, 11:33:03 AM
I recently installed a keylogger protection called SnoopFree Privacy shield because I was afraid I had a keylogger so when I tried to use the Avast antivirus the program told me that is was doing an Unauthorized Screen Access and asked me to block it and said the program named above is trying to read your screen.  This may be a spy program trying to take a snapshot of your screen. 

My question is why does the program said that Avast antivirus was doing a screen access? Is it maybe a error it only appears when im going to scan my hard drive and Avast didn't find any keylogger so I think im safe.
