Title: Blocked Website Logs?
Post by: badass on March 17, 2020, 10:17:19 PM

Avast blocked a bad site, thank god, but I cannot see the logs to get the name of the infection.  I'm looking at my logs but cannot see the blocked website log?  I wanted to report a bad website but did not write it down.  I went to VirusTotal and none their report the site as being bad.  Thanks

Most likely no infection but a URL:blacklist or URL:Phishing

Why report when avast already block, unless you think it is a false positive ?

and you did write it down, it is in your post ....

1. Yes

2. I want to report it on VirusTotal!
That is not the Malware that I seen in the report. 
Found it: URL:Blacklist

I see now what it is doing a search, what do you propose I do about it?  I don't know if it is a False Positive or not?
