I have started getting a message on my Android Phone "Security threat SecureAnywhere appears to be infected. Immediate uninstallation is advised Ignore Uninstall"



I have tried running scan, no threats found.
Hello @druggist ,



Please Submit a Support Ticket and let them know. I'm pretty sure this is a false positive. Someone else I believe it was @smith2006 had this issue that they posted here on the Forum a couple of days ago I think...I would hit "ignore"



Anyways let us know how it goes when you have a chance.

Hello,



There is currently a false positive with Avast, where they are detecting our antivirus as an infection. We are in the process of having this resolved with Avast.



A version of Avast's antivirus is inbuilt into the Android version that Huawei uses, you can safely ignore this detection from Avast.
