starting yesterday 5/5/2023, Avast constantly create pop-ups whenever I go online.

"Threat Secured
We have safely aborted connection on deploy.windscribe.com because it was infected with URL:Blacklist."

I haven't noticed any difference while browsing the web, just this annoying popup shows up every couple of minutes.  I use windscribe VPN, never had any issues.  I'm assuming "deploy.windscribe.com" is one of their servers.  So is this a false positive?  Why did this just started yesterday?

Thanks for any insight.

Hi, I got the same issues since maybe yesterday, but I was not online. Today it's the same thing. I use Windscribe plugin, too. It's happen without using any VPN Server.

And it's going further while I'm writing.

Same here, it wont stop and I have no idea if it's a false positive or not, as I've used Windscribe for months now.
