Avast

A pop up from Avast Security tells me that `Suspicious files have been detected (using a heuristic method)` Please allow the files to be submitted to our virus lab for analysis. Please inform me what I should do, and how do I do it?

Have you actually got Avastinstalled or is at unwanted pop up?

Have you got Avast installed?

Some of these fake security products will pretend to be Avast or whatever.

If you have got Avast then it is ok to do what they ask.

Sorry to be late answering, but I posted @ 10.26 and got first reply @ 13.35, and have just `clocked back on`, and the reply is ````yes, I do have `Avast Security` and I do get Allow or Disallow options, so anyway I just ticked `Delete`, and hope I did the right thing. If it pops up again, what should I do?
