Guess it is one of those days.

Things will change next year.

I have Avast also, but don't advertise it.

That didn't come out like I meant it. I meant that I don't let them use me for free advertising.

Aren't you advertising it by saying that you also use it?

It appeared after I started using it and I cannot find it to delete. If you can offer suggestions to remove it, I'll be more than willing to do so.

I use Thunderbird and it's not in my signature line.

There used to be a place to turn off the mail sig but I don't see it in v2014. Possibly, turn off the mail shield, it serves no purpose...it is redundant.

There are different versions of Avasti. You pay more money, they don't spam everybody.

I use the free version of Avast.

I also use the free version which I assume is why it's there and one reason why I simply decided to tolerate it after failing to discover how to delete it.

You can clear it, fire up the Avast UI. (thinks works for v9.x free) Settings->Active Protection -> Mail -> (Click on the gear) -> Behaviour

-> Uncheck Insert note into clean outgoing.

Woohoo, that did it. I assume that's what dadiOH was referring to also. In mail, there's an option which I overlooked in mail shield "scan newsgroup message". I unchecked it and that was it.

Thank you both.
