I repeatedly encounter the same threat warning for the Yahoo toolbar, which Avast has successfully blocked. I’m unable to locate any mention of the toolbar in my system search, even though I use Yahoo for email and haven’t logged in recently. A complete virus scan was run, and no issues were detected, so it might be a false positive. Avast is current—anyone else facing this issue? Or would you like some guidance?

It's due to the fact that Yahoo's sites have been compromised.
