Harmless. It's Avast trying to make money. All computers have "grime"

Posted

AVAST said that they found evidence of Grime on my PC, Is this bad or harmless, I feel like it isn't a big deal because AVAST immediately asked me to buy Grimefighter 

 

Should I worry about this, I have been having issues with BSoD's, Could Grime be the Cause

 

Thanks

Ya, Thats what I though too, Kinda funny that a pop up window for Grimefighter pops up as soon as Grime is detected on your PC

 

Thanks For The Help

no problem. not cool for avast to load adware on the pc it's supposed to be protecting but I guess it is free so it has to make money somehow...
