If you think Avast is based, think again. They are some of the most annoying AV software (excluding the pure scams of course).

“When I finish writing this, I will put the markers in the box.”
“A meeting is in progress.”
“I’m sweetening my coffee.”
“My back itches.”
“Somebody is standing behind me.”
“This phone is ringing.”

Internal tests by Balast Inc. did not confirm users’ complaints about too many notifications.
