Hello Sergio,
Thank you for taking the time to write us here.
I appreciate your efforts towards resolving the issue. Could you share the screenshot including the detection dialog, by clicking 'See details' in the bottom-right corner displayed. Please confirm the exact occurence of the threat alert (surfing the internet in browsers/trigger randomly). Make sure that you have installed the latest version of AVG on your device. You can post the screenshot here in your topic. Click on "Answer" & then click on the "Image" [mountain symbol] & follow the instructions.
I've been unable to get rid of this alerts, they keep coming up to the point it gets really annoying.
AVG blocks a connection to access-webs.biz/wpad.dat. The executable mentioned varies from svchost, firefox o chrome.exe. Deleting the browser and reinstalling them didn't help.
Regular and booting scans with all specs set to maximum are not finding the cause.
Malwarebytes, Zemana, Hitman pro, find some registrykeys which they delete, but keep coming back after some minutes or restarting my computer, so AVG keep showing up.
AVG boot or regular or intensive scans with all the spects set to maximum are unable to find the causative software that is inyecting those registry-keys.
There is a similar post on May 27 2019 but the solution is not clear to me while reading that post.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

They trigger randomly, but chances increase a lot while i am surfing the internet. The *.exe changes between firefox.exe (while using firefox) or chrome.exe (while using chrome) or svchost.exe.
Thank you for clarifying us with the screenshot.
