First, remove your email address or make it non active such as willz04atyahoodot com, unless you don't mind having it harvested and being buried in spam.

Second welcome to the forums!

You will have to completely uninstall and remove your old av. You definately have a conflict. What was installed before?

There may be remnants, registry entries and or virtual device drivers left behind that avast has detected.

Let us know the previous AV and perhaps we will be able to point you at a removal tool ?

It will be good if you uninstall avast too.
Then, after you don't have ANY other antivirus installed, install avast again.
Like David asked, which was the other antivirus?
