Avinash,

Thank you for getting back to me so quickly. This is what i figured, but wanted to run it by someone else in the community just to be on the safe side. I beleive it may be related to one of my google chrome plugins. not sure. I'll have to take a look at it again later today. Anyways, thanks again!

PUPs Found : 17 - Linux Mint

Hey everyone!

Today i scanned my system with avgd and it reported that it found 17 PUPs! Wanted to get some more feedback from the community on this. I don't beleive my system has been compromised or anything like that, but would like some more feedback from anyone who is willing to share.

COMMANDS RAN:

  $ sudo avgctl
  $ sudo avgupdate
  $ sudo avgscan / -a -H -c -i -j -r /var/log/avgscan.log
