Avast Warning on Yahoo Messenger
« on: December 27, 2009, 03:11:44 PM »
Hello Friends,

This is something that has never happened before.

Today, everytime I am starting the Yahoo Messenger and trying to perform any action on it like clicking on a contact to send an IM, trying to log in to a chat room etc, I keep getting a warning message from Avast, moreover I can't seem to move the infected file to chest

I did a boot scan today morning itself but this warning seems to be popping up everytime I log in to Yahoo Messenger

This is the warning message I get from Avast



...and this is the message I get when I try to move the infected file to chest



Anyone seen this before - do you think this is a genuine warning or a false positive because I have never gotten such warnings off Yahoo Messenger before.

Any help on this would be highly appreciated.


Thanks!
