What kind of warnings? I'm running AVAST and I'm getting no such thing. I'm also running Super Ant-Spyware which is also good. Another great thing to use and protect against internet applications and virus's is a thing called Malware. Malware virus's are a big pain in the ass. If it continues giving you problems try un-installing it, reboot and then re-install.

I got an Avast malware warning a few minutes ago and an Avast warning yesterday evening for something or other...I've gotten several Trojan warnings from them in the past few weeks. I figured it was just doing it's job.
It's all Rick's fault. :P

Malware is usually the common case with OS virus's and what not and can be a real pain, usually created by crazy applications that the OS creates via the internet. Malwarebytes is a good program to run for an anti-virus if you're infected with it but AVAST is top-notch as well.

The last Trojan warning I ever recall getting was from a woman. She warned me that if I didn't have one, I wasn't getting a ride. :cry: :wink: :lol:

Perhaps, because it was dark ...had it not been, I'd say definitely "NO"!! :D
