"Infection Blocked" Message - for Avast Iteself
« on: February 29, 2016, 05:58:01 AM »
Hello.  Got a "Infection Blocked" message when Avast attempted update.

Infection details show   emupdate.avast.com . . .

What OS/SP ?
What exact version of avast ?
At  what point do you get the message ? (when booting, when manually updating or...)
