Started, or at least I noticed yesterday that a few pc's were being alerted on, regarding a website called:  pippio.com ......   When I sand box it, it goes literally to an image of a single PIXEL in size.

It's crazy that I have several, now today, alerting on this same website/image.....

Thanks, but what has me concerned, is the fact most of my network pc's with Avast installed are being alerted of them attempting to access this weblink/address, even though none of the personnel are going there.
