AVAST virus is always sending me warnings of malware, specifically the same 3-4 sites: isoplex and anychicago to name just two!
Over and over again, and there's nothing to report?
Are you folks trying to SELL more browser software. or what? It seems this 'nagware' is coming up all day long now, and has been for weeks.
