[QUOTE="champo, post: 754301, member: 74058"] Hello, About 2-3 weeks ago I started getting pop-ups from my Avast Antivirus indicating that it was blocking a connection that was infected with URL:Mal (see attached screenshot). In response to this, I ran a number of malware removal programs, including MalwareBytes, Hitman Pro, Emsisoft Emergency Kit and another program (which I can no longer recall the name of). Following these scans, the problem seemed to resolve itself in so far as I didn't see any further pop-ups from Avast for a while. The problem now seems to have returned, and running the aforementioned programs has not resolved the issue this time, and no infections were identified. This infected connection is now being attempted every 10 minutes on the dot. I have run Farbar Recovery Scan tool, and attached the reports. Thanks in advance for your assistance. It is very late here, so I will be heading off to bed shortly, however will check for updates first thing in the morning. Kind regards [/QUOTE]
