    Hi

    Is your PC and internet now running ok, as Avast seems to have done its job and blocked the malicious site advert?

    If not and you are still having slow internet then first off delete temps and cookies (can use CCleaner for this) and reboot and try again, if not then you'll need to run THIS guide and then once finished post in our malware forum and attach the requested logs. (all instructions on what to run and how to attach logs are in the guide)
