Wanted to download famous nirsoft tools – and while downloading at a certain point the download is stopped and cannot be resumed – any retry results in html-error 403 (forbidden). only solution is to turn off avast-protection ... how to resolve without turning all protection totally off?

The download itself isn't being blocked but, Avast does detect the Zip file as infected:

Anacunga.

I also get a 403 error for that address but all is fine here: http://launcher.nirsoft.net/download.html

Is that what you want ?

BTW. It also gave me an PUP alert by Avast.
