col I do have avast installed by myself
Runmaster a third party program that runs with avast! antivirus that is used to ensure that all updates only replace the needed data in the virus database of avast! rather than the whole database being downloaded time after time. Can piggyback a trojan only if the trojan is present when you install avast! After it is up and running however - it is 100% safe and reliable and should not be removed. The best way to find out if it piggybacks a trojan is to run the latest version of Ad-aware se personal ( freeware ) while avast 4.6 is active in the background but not running any checks.  See also: Link
