Anybody familiar with Avast Antivirus?

I just got a dialog box saying there was a virus found, I'm assuming I want to abort the connection, but I'm not sure. A little help please?

A great place to ask Avast questions is the Avast forum:

does it say what is trying to connect?
Try rebooting in safemode (restart computer, press F8 over and over again while it is booting up until you see a menu for selecting how to boot up windows, select Safe Mode), and doing a scan and deleting whatever comes up then.
I was fixing a computer yesterday and the same thing was coming up on Avast. Unfortunately The file could not be deleted. But it did point me in the right direction. It was a Trojan hijacking the name server. Please give more info on Avast output. Google the Trojan name. Download Hijack This ( Great tool). Have you tried Adaware and Ewido.
