very funny, all the garbage news is being blocked

 

These stupid false positives are why I stopped using Avast 6 months ago, now you have them too.  Can someone suggest an AV that does not have ridiculous block lists?

 

Here is the website that is used for f-secure block lists:

http://browsingprotection.f-secure.com/swp/

 

As you can see these harmless websites are marked harmful

  Hello Horus,

   

  You might be having the same problem as the one on this thread.

   

  Please check Hailan's explanation at the bottom of the page, and be assured that our teams do their best to re-evaluate websites as quickly as possible if an improper rating is reported or noticed.

   

  Thank you.
