Avast virus alert

[rattlin]

Hello Gents

 

I keep getting Avast "HTML:Script-inf" alerts when I connect with a browser (Firefox).

 

Anyone else having problems? Should I be worried?

 

Cheers

It seems to happen on the first one you click on from subscribed threads

Me too. Biggest problem is the "view new content" link for me then after viewing by individual forums it reverts back to normal

[Pumpuynarak]

Well its an ongoing problem for me, its making the board unuseable.

 

Has anybody got a fix for it ?

If all those reporting problems are using Avast, a false positive may be the cause. There has been discussion about that in the past. 

 

The forum could be infected but that would cause many more reports. 

 

The Avast users could download/install a trial copy of a different antivirus, uninstall Avast and see if they still experience the error. I suspect they will not.

 

If you don't have additional protection such as Malwarebytes, you should. Good luck.

Not sure why.

Try AVG or Spybot.  The former has just stopped three attacks that Microsoft didn't catch.

Hi. I also have this alert since 2 or 3 days.

Seems to happen to the first PA link I click from a PA page, so usually the 2nd PA page I (want) see.

I also use Avast Antivirus

The report is about a website infection type "URL:Mal" and the bad url it tries to open is

"http: // ritaritalo.com/jvVK-/Qm-kqx/juYvQMH-WLG.php?qQ=9en4m9&zAiFo15Y=t358Jm3&jk5yD0=haeflw0&njr=e-fz4b&hYEQFH=3d3j4"

[rattlin]

Thanks for advice Gents.

 

Unfortunately its stopping me from logging in at work as I can't change the antivirus and can do without the attention the alerts bring.

Damn just happened again on the moon topic got message again, weird it is not happening elsewhere just an pattaya addicts will run malwarebytes and see if that helps.

ritaritalo.com warning arrived  is flagged a a malware site too, that came up as a warning just after the C:\www.pattaya-addicts.com/forum/topic/283643... 

[freedom42]

Here is the warning I am getting from random pages.

Just logged in using microsoft edge browser, not getting page reset on the moon landing page or an Avast warning, is this a Mozilla / Avast conflict issue?

[insider]

Firefox and avast now stopping me from clicking on "View New Topics", get page reset again every time, same with chrome, done malwarebytes scan and all clean. Back to Microsoft edge for now.

Edit : Now the same problem with Edge browser, unable to view new content.

Just updated avast, not just the virus definitions but the program as well, all seems good now, (funnily enough that was the 2nd virus definition update today) asked for a restart of PC all pages opening fine.

Yes that did the trick for me too. I got the alerts for last week and the threads got resetted. Now it seems to be fine. I didn't update avast for very long time before this happened.
