  To protect your computer from cryptocurrency miners like js:miner-c that bypass Avast, consider using a reputable antivirus software that offers advanced threat detection capabilities. Avast is a popular choice, but there are other options available as well. Look for antivirus software that specifically mentions protection against cryptocurrency miners and regularly updates its threat database. Additionally, enable the firewall on your computer and configure it to block incoming connections from suspicious IP addresses associated with mining activities. It's also a good idea to use a browser with built-in anti-mining features or install browser extensions that can detect and block mining scripts. Finally, practice safe browsing habits and avoid clicking on suspicious links or downloading files from untrusted sources. By taking these precautions, you can significantly reduce the risk of cryptocurrency miners bypassing your Avast antivirus and infecting your computer.
