I was not trying to connect to the website. Something is trying to connect with to it and I dont know what it is.
I will get a blue dot over the Avast icon located lower right hand side (system tray) next to time. There is no popup or sound. When I click on the icon Avast opens up and it shows 3 tabs, alerts, history and ignored issues.
There is not a link or button to press to show more details.
Since I first started this thread there have been 21 alerts and all have been to the inkestyle website.
No other alerts for any other websites.
Is there anywhere in Avast that is lists in detail what program/webpage/extension/ is trying to access the internet.
A few times I noticed the error popup when I was doing work for work in paint and excel. Meaning, I wasn't surfing the web.
The alert doesn't pop up everyday there was 4 attempts on 11/13 and then 1 today 11/17. I use my computer everyday 6 to 14 hours a day.
Is there a program to monitor my computer to see what is trying to access the internet?
Thanks for the help
Thanks for the help. I checked out the location you pointed out and found the webshield.txt file. It lists the same information that in listed in the image i posted (the same info that is in the main program -notifications/history. )
I cant seem to find where (was it a browser or program and which one) the information is logged , if it is logged at all.
As far as the alerts and the balloon that would pop up, there isnt one anymore. I work at my computer for hours on end and sometimes the icon for the AVAST program (lower right hand side with all other running programs) that is orange will have a blue dot on it and that is what lets you know something is blocked. When i click on it, it only shows the basic info that i shared an image of.
1. I was hoping it would have given additional information.
2. The Avast Alert window is a one shot deal, unfortunately once closed it can't be viewed again. So don't panic (avast has essentially frozen time) and immediately delete the alert window, click the more details option and take a screenshot. That helps and there is also a unique identifier at the bottom that could help Avast.
Were you actually trying to connect to inkestyle.net ? (edit typo in domain)
Were you browsing at the time and if so that is the browser ?
If so, have you added any new (or update any) add-ons ?
If not it could be a redirection from a site you are visiting
