About a half hour ago, I logged into my gmail account. as gmail was loading, AVG gave me a pop up stating that it had caught and quarantined a threat. Concerned, I opened AVG, started a full computer scan and went to the quarantine box. It is empty and it states there are no malicious items.
To test it out, I went to various sites that I use on a regular basis - among them, Facebook, Tumblr, YouTube and AO3. Thus far, only Gmail and Google's homepage pop up with this same "warning". And each time the quarantine is empty.
Is this a glitch? including image below.
Hello Ruby,
We apologize for the inconvenience caused. This is an ongoing issue please do not worry this is a false positive. To fix this, please update the Virus definitions in the AVG Program once and go to Run window (press windows key and R key simultaneously) and type the following comments to delete the folders.
1. Type “Temp” and press enter, remove all the files.
2. “%temp%” and remove all the files.
Once you done this, please reboot the computer and check the issue.
Thank you.
