i was using escan as antivirus ,it pops up like this some times "escan internet security for windows malware url : ad adnetwork.net" and "malware url : router.tlvmedia.com/logger" and sometimes it says "Connection to the Local host "my ip address" to some "ip address " has been blocked by escan" and sometimes it pops up like "malware : tinyurl...." What all this means ?

I think it is a free anti virus only. As customer, we have nothing to do in these cases. Anti virus tool is blocking certain malware that may go against your computer. it is only good. I suggest u do full scan periodically say once in a week to check about virus status. good day.

Its not a free anti virus software installed in my computer., i pay yearly 350 rupees and the antivirus live support does give a nice help also when there is any problem.It is a good Antivirus software. Yes may be its periodically checking ,one question what is checking is Antivirus software of escan cheking ,is it the software or is the people who are running the company of Antivirus Escan are doing their work,what is the background work. Does anyone aware of that what actually the software installed does ? Escan,Avast,Kaspersky or any other antivirus software is sold to us yearly ,are we paying for the employees of such and such companies who are doing such regular checking for us.? . I just wanted to know what is the work behind this.

The anti virus is doing its job. It is checking and ensuring malware doesn't attach one's computer. do not bother.
