    It appears as you are getting these pop-ups because the virus is still present in your system files. I would like to know whether you have updated the virus definition before scanning your system. It appears as the virus which is there is not removed completely. So this time try to remove the virus again but after updating the virus definition.

    It appears as you are using a free version of the avast antivirus since only the free antiviruses are not capable of removing the threats properly. Sometimes even when the virus is not removed properly then also it appears as it has been removed so when you reboot the system again it pops-up the message again.

    In this situation i would recommend you to search for a setting in the avast antivirus control panel and check whether there is a setting for the confirmation. You simply need to disable it and then apply the settings. I think that the notification of Virus/malware will get stopped as soon as you disable it.
