Title: Avast is blocking my site by mistake
Post by: develop on July 28, 2022, 01:56:44 PM

Hello,

I am the founder of IPWHOIS.io ( https:// ipwhois.io/ )

Our service provides IP address geolocation API.

This month, we started getting a message from our customers about Avast blocking our domains:
https:// ipwhois.pro/ - this domain is a paid API endpoint
https:// ipwho.is/ - this domain is a free API endpoint

Threat detected by Avast - URL:Botnet

This is a false positive, please investigate and unblock our company's domains as soon as possible.

Thanks in advance.
