Hi. First time poster. Have had free avast for approx 13 years.  I have for approx 15 years been using a few free sites to watch sport without any issues. After approx 2 years of using them I installed the free avast on recommendation of a friend. The sport sites and avast were happily co-existing on my computer. Now suddenly avast is blocking me from using the two sites to watch live feeds. I can watch recorded sport on them, but not live.

My question is, have both sites suddenly been infected with a virus (as the avast warning tells me), or is the latest avast update having some issues?

The sites are: livetv and vipbox

On livetv I get a warning about "JS:ScriptIP-inf [Trj}" and on vipbox "HTML:Iframe-inf [Susp]". I have checked them, and yes, they sound like nasties. But I have noticed that there have been a few false warnings from avast and wondered if these are the same??

Thanks Be Secure. Yes, I have had some issues using vipbox lately and have almost fully started using livetv only. As mentioned, I can watch videos of sport on livetv without any issues, but as soon as i try to watch a live sport event Avast stops me from doing so. This only started a couple of days ago, before that I have had no issues when running Avast in the background and watching the live feed.

Hmm... Yes I was able to watch the Finland - Sweden world champs ice hockey game on livetv, but 5 of 6 links still gave the Avast warning as above and stopped me watching. Luckily the 6'th one was OK. So not sure what is going on?
