in later versions somehow/somewhere I was able to see the list of the found/blocked threats already reported by Avast. There i could see the file, the virus, the path to the file and so on.
Right now I got popup from Avast , at first I closed it without action, now I want to verrify the path again, and I am not sure which file avast reported exactly. The file is NOT in the virus container.
How to to this in version 9? Hopefully it has not been removed

anohter question
going to Statistics->Component status shows the virus blocked in the last 30 days but I can not click on it to see the files (see screenshot). All other fields in the status window are clickable. Is this OK?

Yes
If these are viruses that were on your computer, you'll also find them in the virus chest.
If they aren't in the virus chest, these are most likely items blocked while you where online.

So anything blocked by avast would show up in the report log?  Just want to make sure I'm correct.  They really need to update that where you can click on it.
