Avast Webshield and Quicken Premium 2019
« on: March 02, 2019, 11:38:07 PM »
Starting yesterday, I"m now getting the following detections from Avast when I start Quicken:

3/2/2019 6:12:55 AM   http://ip-api.com/xml/ [L] URL:Blacklist (0)
3/2/2019 12:08:59 PM   http://ip-api.com/xml/ [L] URL:Blacklist (0)
3/2/2019 2:30:18 PM   http://ip-api.com/xml/ [L] URL:Blacklist (0)

Nothing has changed on Quicken's end. What's going on?

I started getting the same error with Quicken Starter today - must be a problem with Avast

Hey guys, I just got done chatting with online help from Quicken and they said they think it's because of the latest update of Avast. Hoping they will come out with a fix soon (I'm sure they will)

Hey,

I work at ip-api.com; this is clearly a FP, we do not serve malware, adware, cookies, file downloads, or any malicious content, never.

It still needs to be reported to Avast. They are the only ones that can fix this if it's a false positive.

Yeah, what you said (about reporting it to Avast)

I have been trying since yesterday and am still having problems with this.  I even restarted my computer. Do I need to do more to get it to work again?

Try updating your Virus definitions and then reboot.

I've begun getting the same response when opening Quicken.  But what do I do in the meantime, while AVAST fixes the issue?  I want to make sure my data is safe.
