Title: Web Shield blocked me from www.tenforums.com
Post by: loungehake on July 02, 2020, 05:11:03 PM

As far as I know tenforums.com is reputable yet Web Shield 'protected' me from it.  I could not see any way of overriding Web Shield or reporting to Avast that a false positive was given.

No issue here, so something appears to have been resolved.
