I maintain the website http://eriecountygov.org

I had a user report that avast webshield was blocking it as malware. The site is clean, can someone please take a look and let me know what's up?

Thanks

When was this ?
What VPS version do they have, latest 110412-0 and no detections or blocking when visiting this site ?

I believe you are both right. This was just yesterday. Just a little while ago, the user reported back they are no longer experiencing the issue, so I'm assuming they must've updated their definition already. Thanks!
