Today, that window popped up, and just won't go away. It also made the system very slow, and bought it to a crawl. I decided to reboot the system, and so I closed Firefox. The window went away, and the system became fine again. So, my guess is that Avira is using the browser in some way to display this window.

Whatever it is, its a nuisance. Avira keeps coming up with new ways to make its users crazy.

Still a nuisance. It pops up randomly, and sometimes the link Remind me later is not clickable. It also starts to use high CPU when it pops up, and can't be closed. Have to close it from task manager. Not good at all.
