Hello. I installed the Avira ADD ON but whenever I wanted to download something it redirected me to the Avira advertisement. I saw there are others with the same issue but using chrome. In order to do what I had to do, I disabled it. Will there be a solution for this or should I go on without Avira on my browser?

General rule of thumb for browser add-ons; if you don't know what is does, you don't need it.

Add-ons are suppose to help you. If they cause problems, remove it.
