POTENTIAL MALWARE? ETD_GetSmart

Does anyone know what ETD_GetSmart is?  Does AVG get rid of it?

Hi Barry,

Let me explain this for you.

ETD_GetSMART.exe is usually located in the. 'C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\HP Support Framework\Resources\HPActiveHealth\Executable Agent Data\_Shared\DiskCheck\' folder. It is a "useful" part of the HP software that monitors the "health" of your computer.

You have an active subscription of AVG Ultimate (AVG Internet Security and AVG PC TuneUp) valid till 2021.3.22. You can use this to cover the protection (viruses get into PC) and performance issues on your devices.

If we can of more clarifications, please let us know.
