[dba-Tech] Threat has been detected

[Rocky Smolin]

I am getting a message intermittently from Avast: a verbal - ding-ding-don
'A threat has been detected', and the message: Threat secured. We've safely
aborted connection on www.searchnet.com because it was infected with
HTML:RedirME-Inf[TR]].

 

Is this a real threat, a false positive? I can't find any reference to
searchnet on my comp.  So I don't know where this is coming from.

 

Any ideas?

 

TIA
