Title: Avast is producing a false positive on my website.
Post by: RastaLulz on February 01, 2012, 10:07:22 PM

Hello,

Some of my users that use your software can not access one of my websites, as it is coming up as a "malicious URL blocked", which makes little to no sense to me. I hope that this false positive can be dealt with, as there is no reason (to my knowledge) as to why it would be deemed a malicious URL.

Thank you for your time,

bit defender seems to detect something too but well, most AV don't (I know, Avast does), so it could be an FP

... further analysis is needed anyway
