Avast keeps telling me when I log into a game called Old School Runescape, that it has secured me against a threat infected with a 'Botnet:Blacklist' from the connection 'tcp://81.31.201.136:43594'
It happened suddenly an have never gotten this warning before in the 4 years I have played that game.
I didn't have a VPN at the moment it happened, but i have the avast secureline VPN now.
I have tried to restore pc to factory setting (if I had a virus on my pc) and it sadly didnt solve the problem.
Also scanned the entire PC, both ssd's i have and the folder the game is located in.
Any ideas what it could be and how to fix it?
Is there a possibility that my PC is infected or is it a false warning?
Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad English :-X

Hi AjHelpMePlz,
There has been malware reported in relation to this Jagex IP: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/ip-address/81.31.201.136/relations
Wait for a final verdict from avast's team to see whether this is a genuine detection or a so-called false positive find.

(for windows 10 -> This should fix your problem with OSRS installer.
If this did not help means you have problem with Windows installer.
Probably a firewall rule that flags Port 43594 traffic that could be trojaned, read: https://www.speedguide.net/port.php?port=43594
Could also be a server look-up problem. It's probably safe to visit the URL you entered. None of the services we checked will report it as suspicious.
