Title: Avast Internet Security (AIS) blocking Windows Live Hotmail home page-FP?
Post by: JuninhoSlo on April 07, 2011, 05:16:45 PM

Hi :)

I don,t use IE quite often but here is my problem "My homepage in IE8 is http://explore.live.com/Windows-live-hotmail" a few minutes ago Avast Internet Security (AIS) blocked this webpage. FP or not?

I found this in Avast nshield log file:


07.04.2011  16:41:01  Network Shield: blocked access to malicious site css.wlxrs.com/XnrQCchPX836L3fVH!R!gdRSMcPIBVjfR6XaI18gTvzYJwuQTeykwke-n449cAvVJ1bpcMFoehazL9jmhlahZg/base/15.40.1211/img/default_final_ltr.jpg [ C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe ( 2308 ) ]

Did anyone hacked on Windows live web page?

Thank you.

Lep pozdrav

Have a client that gets this error when she tries to access the Calendar in Hotmail. Unchecking "Scan Web (HTTP) Traffic" under Web Shield under Real Time Shields is a temporary fix.
