I was watching Hulu videos, without incident, for about 2 hours before this problem occurred. Somewhere near the end of that time frame, I received a notification that the virus database had been updated. About 30 mins or so later, when I loaded a new video on Hulu, I received a little On-Access Scanner pop up message above the systray that said:
"Network Shield: blocked access to malicious site
www.hulu.com/player.swf"
I have tried:
1. Adding URLs, w/asterisks as wild cards, to the excluded URLs list
2. Adding *.swf to the exclusions list
3. Adding the IP address of the Hulu site to the transparent web scanning ignored addresses
4. Disabling web scanning
None of these work, either individually or in concert with each other.
I'd like to get Hulu working again, and I'd like to keep using avast!. What do I need to do to make that happen?
Thanks,
Pd
