Unblock web site
« on: March 29, 2010, 04:43:20 AM »
Hello fellows!

I'm having some problems using Avast Free edition 5.0. It's blocking some websites that I'm very used to visit.

How can I unblock an web-site?

Thanks,

Vinicius.

mmm... I don't think that is a good idea unlock blocked sites, because if avast is blocking the access to those sites means that maybe they have malware, avast! is only protecting you from danger  ;)

Could you put on some links to those website but don't forget to change http:// to hxxp:// to prevent accidental clicks. :)

Sure, the website is from the largest TV company in Brazil:

hxxp://www.globo.com

Thank you,
Vinicius.

Seems pretty odd but I can view the webpage and its pages without any alerts. Must've been fixed or so.

Could you still recall the avast! alert on the website? Something like: "HTML-iframe.inf was found!"

[edit: typo :)]

I'm using Firefox 3.6.2 and Internet Explorer 8 and its OK.
disable the web shield and see if you can emter in the website.
I think it has nothing to do with avast.
already look at your host file.

Hello everybody!
Thanks for the posts! I don't know exactly why, but now, I can access the website normally...

Best regards!
