But regardless of the group, you will need to clean up your description of
the problem if you want a good response.

I had a similar issue trying out Panda Softwares
'ActiveScan' - AVAST does not ilk to have any additional
/other AV software installed as yet (detects it as possible
Virus). I'm trying to resolve this with them, but do not
know if there will be a solution.

Thank you - Lester

1. I think the webpage that you opened had malware, which Avast tried
to protect you from. You ought to check your computer for spyware,
etc; read this: http://techqi.blogspot.com/2008/01/m...re-part-1.html.

2. As much as it's loved, Avast doesn't have the best real-time
scanner out there (here's my experience:
http://avscan.blogspot.com/2008/01/a...on-review.html).
You might want to grab a different antivirus; check out http://avscan.blogspot.com.

3. Are you using a good firewall? XP's firewall is far from perfect,
so you definitely need something. I suggest ZoneAlarm (http://
techqi.blogspot.com/2008/01/miscellaneous-security-software-
part-2.html).

Good luck!
