Netflix causes url:Blacklist Avast warnings ... false positive ?
avragorn:
Hello :)
Since last sunday when I go to Netflix, there regularly are Avast warnings saying that the connexion to

has been blocked because of url:Blacklist.
It happens either when I start episodes from series or movies, or when I do a search on Netflix.
I cleared the browser history and cache, and no Avast warnings until last tuesday, it happened again, I cleared the browser history and cache again, .... no Avast warnings until this morning, I did a search on Netflix, and Avast suddenly warned again about the same (same url blocked because of url:Blacklist), and after closing my browser (Firefox), Avast didn't stop warning me about the same thing (same url, same url:Blacklist), I closed the Avast warning pop-up everytime, but it came back every 2-3 seconds even if Firefox was closed, I had to restart my computer to stop it.
I cleared the browser history and cache again, but I guess that in a few days Avast will warn again for the same thing.
Do you know about it ? Could it be a false positive ? I never got any troubles with Netflix, I am using Netflix since september 2014.
I am using
AVAST free 19.4.2374 (version 19.4.4318.451)
virus database 190417-4
number of definitions 6,567,625
interface version 1.0.362
Firefox Quantum 66.0.3 (64 bits)
Thank you very much,

Thanks :) So it means that it is not blacklisted, if I have well understood :)
ps : this time I have to go, I come back in 9-10 hours ;)

Nope, it means that it can't be scanned. (Maybe a typo..?)
