Ok, this is probably a stupid question but I recently had an alert (threat detected) about 2 files but I want to confirm its not a false positive. In the Avast scan result window it has "file name", "severity", "status", "action" and "result". The problem is the first file is simply a url "
http://blahblah..." with a severity of high and a status of Threat: HTML:Iframe-inf" asking to be moved to the chest and the second listing a folder on one of my external drives where I have a bunch of compressed web design elements in approx 150 separate zip/rar files.
The problem with both of these is I can't find the FULL file paths. The first one, the url, is just that - only the url which is not open in any of my browsers or in the history and the second only shows the beginning of the file path but has a /../ in the file name so I don't know which archive is the suspected "decompression bomb".
How do I list the FULL and COMPETE file paths in Avast? Isn't it kind of pointless to only show a partial file path, why even show it at all?
I've searched the UI of Avast and these forums and have found nothing. Any help is appreciated.
EDIT: oh yeah, I have also dragged the slider in the column to see if it reveals more info and have tried right clicking the items as well. No go.
EDIT2: This might be a bug. After closing the scan result window and then reopening it through the "scan computer > scan logs > view results" it opened the same dialog and I was able to then use the colum slider to reveal the full path of the second listing - the folder, however the url is still a mystery as it is listing a public web url which obviously doesn't reside on my computer unless there is some type of cached file in which case I still don't have any way of knowing where it is and I'd hate to delete a saved shortcut that might be a false positive - and why not list the actual file and not the url even if the "suspected" threat is located at that url?
