So I downloaded and installed Avira (free version) the other day. It seemed to be going fine (well, it gave me some issues installing, but installed fine after a reboot) until last night, when while I was surfing the net, a popup ad for Avira came up out of nowhere. Does this happen for anyone else? Should I be concerned about if I have a legitimate copy or if it is some malware-laden fake? (I downloaded it from a site that looked like the legit Avira site I found from googling.) Is there a way to verify it is legit? Am I concerned for no good reason?![]()

Fantastic. Thanks for the tip. It woud be nice if they mentioned, in big, bold, red text before you download that this thing would give you a popup once a day. Kinda dirty for software that is supposed to help fight crap like random popups.
