Hello,
Avast me blocks access to the site of malekal
https://www.malekal.com/securiser-son-ordinateur-et-connaitre-les-menaces-2/






Is this normal? can you check ?
Virustotal gives 0/64
Thank you in advance for your answers
Have a good day

PS) why is Avast no longer available on Virustotal (url analysis ) ?

It is ... but not for URL scan (blacklist check)


if you do a file scan, avast is there

Hello Pondus
OK ... thanks for your reply .. it is true that Avast is viewed on Total Virus for file scanning.

* And regarding the URL that is blocked ... do you have a way to check it?

thank you in advance
Have a good day

Only a Moderator can move a topic.

Malekal is an IT expert who specializes in malware. As such, he posts information about viruses (in this case bankfrauds) online. As he used non-encoded version of the real phishing, we have detected the phishing in his website and alerted on that.

Now I have two options:
* write to him to remove/encode the phishing
* disable the detection

As both him and this specific phishing are not active lately, I opted for disabling the detection.

Hello HonzaZ,
Thank you very much for your answer and explanations, explanations that it was not a FP but that Avast had detected a "bankfraud" (unlike antivirus consulted on virustotal.
I think that since this phishing is not active ... suppressing detection is the right solution.
Thank you again for your intervention.
Have a good day and enjoy reading again.
