    How on earth could Avast have thought this is acceptable?

    Thanks for the link, HAN.

    Just another reason why I don't use any browser extensions or add-ons that aren't absolutely needed, and I use a paid antivirus program. Nothing is really free these days.

    Thanks for the info. That is a totally unacceptable business practice. I hope they get excoriated for that.
