0 AdunSaveMe Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Either it's a false flag (which is likely, because the forums are clean) or you have some sort of malware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 hatchetman Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 I use Avast and never had the warning on the forums. I've been using the free version since 2003 and never been infected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Arcainyx Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 According to Avast's forums there was an issue with false positives regarding this worm that should now be fixed with a recent update. When an AV program blocks a threat you can often find useful information about it on the web by searching for it by name in this case under the 'Infection' title. I'm using Avast on my home PC because it's free and seems to be well rated by websites and users. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
