Do you mean avast will block a whole site just because a single file is infected?
I certainly hope so. I know I don't want to wind up with the infected file on my system. :)
I personally can't think of any site that is so important that I need to visit it if it contains infections of any kind.

wind up with the infected file
Do you mean "wind up the computer with the infected file"?

Hi Matthew_Wai,

One file on a site means an infested site that could then infest users that come to visit that site. Do we want to infest visitors of our site. No, we do not. So we have to cleanse the files first, yes even when there is one infested file, and then the site can become unblocked and visitors can come again to the site.
Is that so hard to imagine?    是這樣的,很難想像?

Hi polonus,

It is not hard to imagine zero tolerance when it comes to infection.
But I can't imagine why you could 寫中文字,你是中國人嗎?

Do you mean the infected file exists on all pages of the site?

Sorry for having overlooked the post number.

The infected file was
hxxp://60.210.11.231/file/mdawmdawmdhmzntt3gw_6vm8w34pwr1wsbqbat_3thhkqpgcslagnq../ba97b7fbf4ab948d7ceb62df1626d016fbc97/%e9%97%ae%e9%97%ae%e5%ad%a6%e5%a0%82%e8%87%aa%e5%8a%a8%e7%ad%94%e9%a2%98%e5%99%a8beta%203.85.rar?key=aaabqfhcyxi8vv6i&p=&a=4022865-af11

This file was not part of http://60.210.11.231/lvs/banner_1.jpg which was a safe file but blocked, why?

Not the .jpg is blocked, but the entire website.
The reason for it that there is that .rar file.
It redirects to dbank which is not trustfull.

We seem to be going around in a circle.
