interfering web site
« on: November 27, 2023, 02:14:04 PM »
When attempting to access certain of my regularly used web sites a URL titled xatreon.com comes up blocking the web site I want despite having entered the correct URL.
I have blocked it on Avast but this does not work, I assume this feature just prevents any user on my computer from accessing this site. Can anybody help! Thanks
It has also started to block my access to Avast!!

Run a scan with Malwarebytes antimalware and Malwarebytes Adwcleaner and let they remove what they find

Unfortunately the problem has returned. It does not happen every time the same website. It seems to be a particular problem with the Hargreaves Website.

Any other suggestion ? Thanks

You mean this hl.co.uk.  ?

This page seems to be <suspicious> 1 suspicious inline script found.

Thanks for the link, I have changed browser which seems to have worked, but I will also try the other suggestions included in the link you kindly provided.

Cybersecurity is more of an attitude than anything else. Avast Evangelists.

Use NoScript, a limited user account and a virtual machine and be safe(r)!
