Why is my site blacklisted?
« on: February 06, 2016, 12:01:47 PM »
Hi, my site keeps getting blacklisted by Avast, although its clean by all major virus scanners.
This is causing me serious issues with my visitors, because avast is very popular in my country.
Please, fix this.

As has been explained a lot of times already...
URL:Mal = IP and/or Domain is blacklisted

Redirection, suspicious IFrame, suspicious scripts :
http://www.web-malware-removal.com/website-malware-virus-scanner/?url=www.sportvdireto.online

Parked domain:
http://zulu.zscaler.com/submission/show/2b301e59387393ae476e016aafcca151-1454761260

I see...but you realize that Cloudflare, Shareaholic, and Histats, are idoneous companies, and those scripts are being blocked by mistake, right?

No, they are not blocked by mistake.
A script blocker that doesn't block (certain) scripts would not make any sense.

As Eddy says here, there is always something to it,when and why it is being blocked, for instance read here: http://www.pamelahazelton.com/social-media-tips-for-small-businesses/wordpress-shareaholic-viglink/

A lot of users use ad- and scriptblocking also to be protected against certain kinds of threats (fraudulent clicks, adware, malicious adverts etc.). At least some of these bulkhosters have some dubious reputation, not malicious per se. But for Cloudflare read here:
http://www.crimeflare.com/cfssl.html
(About the nature of the site and contents that is open to some discussion, but general conclusions seem convincing.)

As you asked about it, I think you deserve a reply like this.

Hi  freetvhelpdesk,

It would be interesting to know why Avast blocks your website, let us wait for an Avast Team Member to respond.
We here are volunteers with relevant knowledge. I too certainly doubt that Cloudflare has been flagged, as we do not see Avast flag invalid SSL signatures recently. So wait for an Avast Team Member to reply, he has been informed, but this may be after the weekend.

Hi Eddy,

A very likely candidate for a block, as DrWeb has it blacklisted:
Quote
htxp://s10.histats.com/js15.js is in Dr.Web malicious sites list!
But let's wait for the final word from Avast Team  ;)

I do not see any malicious activity on the domain now, so I unblocked it ;)

Can you try turning off your shields, then turning them back on, then accessing your website again?

Perhaps the OP doesn't have the latest vps/stream-updates.
