That's unfortunate given alexa's chequered history.

I hope they change it a bit to distance themselves from any similarity.

Well you have to ask why alexa's looks like avast's icon and why don't they change theirs
we avast users all know which one should be changed.

I emailed alexa and asked them why they copied the avast logo-maybe all of us should email them.Here is the contact link-

Knowing Alexa's bad history, I think I will refrain from voluntarily giving Alexa my email address.
