Avast is blocking sites
« on: August 05, 2014, 04:38:06 AM »
Hello!

I've been using the following site ( http://www.tentacl.com/ --which is a forum of sorts where I share my art ) for a few days now and today it has been blocked by Avast. Is there anyway I can turn off the block on that site...so far whatever I do doesn't seem to work :/

Looks like only the url is blocked for a unknown reason.
This is working: http://50.112.178.24/forum/explore

Looks like a false positive to me.
Use the contact form and report it:
www.avast.com/contact-form.php

please post a link to this thread in your reply.

Certainly site has dns issues: http://dnscheck.pingdom.com/?domain=www.tentacl.com&timestamp=1407241642&view=2
For me site is not being blocked: http://www.tentacl.com/forum/explore
link to http://beacon-2.newrelic.com/ has been blocked by an extension.
