Title: Avast URL:Phishing
Post by: hokugable on January 22, 2021, 05:45:27 AM

I am trying to download a file hosted on bit.ly and keep getting error message  URL:Phishing.

How do I disable that in Avast Premium Security and why is it doing that now as it did not before?

Thanks,
Bev

Check it, Ultimately, if you get a Bitly link sent to your messages and you can’t do the typical “check the domain” thing,
check the Bitly link by adding + to the end of the URL, and then look at the domain.

Else report to avast's, considering that site's reputation https://sur.ly/i/bitly.com/
and wait for a final verdict from avast team, as they are the only ones to unblock or declare it as a FP.

What is this message: "Machinery equipped with wet for bearing purposes"?
Some sort of spam?
