Malware in URL ?
« on: January 25, 2015, 08:05:19 AM »
Hi, as I visit this site https://www.freecharge.in (a mobile recharge service), avast detects a malware or whatever in one of the link and blocks that certain page/link. The website however, functions well. When cross checked with virus total and google safe browsing, they return this link (g2.symcb.com) as clean. So, is this false positive? Interestingly enough, virus total service does not list avast as one of the scanner. Why so?

I opened the link with firefox.
Avast does not detect that url as malware in IE and Chrome.

Virus Total Result: https://www.virustotal.com/en/url/bcf00aa641cccdbd0f4148e4af5c1b441cd31bc88f239bd7fd48463793ce3c0e/analysis/1422167696/
Google result: http://www.google.co.in/safebrowsing/diagnostic?site=g2.symcb.com/
