Avast Blocking website
« on: November 30, 2012, 06:33:35 PM »
Hi, I'm new to the forum but have a question I can't seem to resolve unless I disconnect Avast.

The Network shield is blocking this website; xww.freevintagepatternsdazespast.com and all of it's pages.

The host tells me they can retrieve the page--I can only retrieve the page with Avast turned off.

This is a WordPress site--I can't even access the WP log in unless I turn off Avast.

I disconnected Avast for 10 min. and was able to retrieve the pages but once Avast was back on line--if I try to click a link I get the same message:
This message was associated with IE, Firefox and Chrome

Infection Details
URL:   hxtp://www.freevintagepatternsdazespast....
Process:   C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\App...
Infection:   URL:Mal

This problem began about 4 days ago.

I went into web shield and added the site to the scan exclusion list that did not to help.

There is no place in network to exclude a site from being scanned??

Help, please

Thanks in advance Ruby

The site has an outdated WP version, so vulnerable: Wordpress internal path: /home/rsfreevi/public_html/wp-content/themes/genesis/index.php
Site has retargeting advertising and tracking from adroll with a bad web reputation: http://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/a.adroll.com?utm_source=addon&utm_content=popup-donuts  &
http://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/s.adroll.com
Suspicious scripts flagged for wp-includes -> http://zulu.zscaler.com/submission/show/97ea7c857417dda333abbada024c6c06-1354297871

Just seen in the other section on the forum that the site will be unblocked with a next update, according to

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)!
