If you delete them they will be recreated.  Used by avast to monitor urls used to download files.

What avast program are you using (Avast Free Antivirus / Pro Antivirus / Internet Security/ Premier) and what version ?

What is the full location ?
I can only find URL.db in C:\ProgramData\AVAST Software\Avast and that is only 21MB.
