I used another site checker and only used the top level domain, 02.com no sub-domains and that too suggests it is down for everyone. Even the full sub.domain URL ad.adtr.02.com results in the same down for everyone.

The malwarebytes log you attached is not the scan log, anyway if nothing was detected there is no need for it

Malware experts are notified, they may not be online before tomorrow

Just checked both links in reply #11 and no warnings with Opera 47.0.2631.71 (PGO) on W10 (fully up to date) and latest avast free.

Just a guess, but perhaps because the ads are "targeted".

Searching for adtr in the source code gives 0 results.

Meanwhile I know from the German Avadas Forum (http://forum.avadas.de/threads/8095-st%C3%A4ndige-Meldung-Bedrohung-durch-quot-JS-Downloader-DEF-quot (http://forum.avadas.de/threads/8095-st%C3%A4ndige-Meldung-Bedrohung-durch-quot-JS-Downloader-DEF-quot)) that there are at least two other users with the same problem as mine

There is also a post about it on the MAC forum.

Logs say that your system is clean which means you don't have adware on your system which cause Avast to block mentioned JS. I'm still waiting for this VirusTotal scan finishes and until then we will not know for sure is it Avast false positive or not.

Obviously the problem has been solved - no more alerts in this case since yesterday. Fine

It is not exactly the same issue, but very similar one.

Few users of our site reported Avast alerts recently,
that  JS:Downloader-YT [Trj] has been detected.
For instance this page gave the alert http://video.meta.ua/9443596.video

I assume that an obfuscated javascript cause false positive, is there any method to whitelist javascripts?


Title: Re: always messages "JS:Downloader-DEF [Trj]" blocked
Post by: Eddy on August 31, 2017, 03:13:40 PM
avast doesn't alert there as the page doesn't even load.

Loading fine here   ;)

anyway  @metamaster  you should start your own topic


Title: Re: always messages "JS:Downloader-DEF [Trj]" blocked
Post by: REDACTED on August 31, 2017, 03:23:33 PM
Well, the jascript, which is a media player,  is generated dynamically, so time to time it could have a signature that leads to detection.

So I am looking for a whitelisting method for the site scripts.

@Eddy and others,

I get a message for this adware related detection JS:Downloader-YT [Trj] on -http://video.meta.ua/9443596 [gzip]

Probably those that do not detect have pup-detection disabled within avast free.  Detection was there from 2010.

DNS issues on site:
With this domain I find stealth name servers: found stealth name servers at some of your servers. All name servers returned by domain name servers should be listed at parent servers

No detections at the main domain address: http://toolbar.netcraft.com/site_report?url=http://video.meta.ua

Some certificates in the chain are installed in the wrong order. See details below. Reinstall the certificates in the proper order.

@polonus, thank you for information.

But, as Pondus has suggested I would start a separate topic for further discussion.

Hi metamaster,

No sweat, I'd follow you there then, certainly when Pondus  ;) suggested this.
Thanks again for putting the issue up and discussing it.
