Avast Web Safety obscures safe web content
« on: September 28, 2014, 01:07:16 PM »
So long as a link is safe, Avast should not modify the page *at all*.  There is no reason to.  I only need to know if a site should be avoided, and I don't need safe content made illegible because Avast obscures text to tell me how safe it is.  If another program did this, I would consider it malware...

Strange, Something I've never run into. I only see the checkmark in search results. Not on websites.

I certainly do see it when I go to the Slashdot forum. ???
