Help Please
« on: October 18, 2012, 07:13:59 PM »
Can someone please tell me why avast is blocking a site i visit.

I have no problems visiting the site through my phone, but avast on my desktop keeps blocking the site.

The site is wxw.replica-watch.info and the message i receive is attached.

Thanks

The answer is in the alert: Avast considers the site or something in it to be dangerous.
What's the point of having an AV and not reading the messages?

WOT also gives the site a poor reputation.

Thanks for the replys, i have been a forum member on that site for the last 3 months and never had a problem with avast letting me on to that site.

The problems have only started today, and i dont know what has happened.

Thousands of websites become infected with malware daily and perhaps this is what has happened.

In today's world, you need not click on anything. All you need to do is land on an infected web page and your computer becomes infected.
