My company uses Avast Endpoint Protection Suite Plus (8.0.1603), and every time I boot up my PC I'm presented with a browser window pointing to a URL that starts "
https://program.avast.com". The URL is very long, contains information about my PC (I can the computer alias/name is in there), and the webpage display itself is completely blank.
This is relatively new, happening each day now for only about two weeks. I was hoping it was an error and that a software update was coming to stop it, but nothing so far. No-one else in the office sees this, it's only on my computer. Avast itself doesn't do anything visibly (no pop ups etc. to explain what's happening), so I can't quiz it to figure out why it does this.
What's going on?
I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit on a DELL laptop.
