website only being seen as malicious by avast ?
« on: February 11, 2013, 05:57:16 PM »
I cannot load xww.oceansafety.com avast blocks the site as it did have a trojhan over a week ago.  Yet on my laptop which has security essentials I have no problem, and have run a multi site virus checker site which reports over 30 scanners as it being clean ?

Avast isn't alone in this detection, not many even scan for this type of thing (injected javascript script) much less detect it. I captured what was being alerted on and uploaded to virustotal 40+ scanners, https://www.virustotal.com/file/6c07d3be684799ed833607537a46d55cc49b2b9ff564cc14b3d4e339659c9dbe/analysis/1360604370/.

thats great, but means little to me, so am I not safe with my other virus scanner, or is this a false result from avast ?

Cybersecurity is more of an attitude than anything else. Avast Evangelists.

Use NoScript, a limited user account and a virtual machine and be safe(r)!
