Avast blocking files here?

Thanks Dandydone, My mother tongue is french. Therefore I did not understand what bookmarks meant. Obvious, sorry.

When it comes to "alerts" from Avast, it happens everytime I am going on "ask Dr Deco" :-(

Your location in your profile, showing on your posts, helps. I just can't help much with cross language explanations, and even what google shows may be different over there? Hope you made that out ok?

I just looked at Dr.Deco forum. No alerts.

Hi, done what you suggested. Took away bookmark and cache, restarted the PC and reinstalled scubaboard bookmark. Same problem. Infection warning in Dr Deco after 5 seconds :-(

Hi Freewillow.

Since it's only this one page, I'd be curious to see a little more information.

Are you using Chrome or another browser? If you're using chrome, can you use this extension, https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/full-page-screen-capture/fdpohaocaechififmbbbbbknoalclacl

and post a full page screen capture?

 

[Freewillow]

Yes I have chrome and I cannot see the small camera you are mentionning in your post.

I will write what I can read on the AVAST warning. If this deos not help, forget it.

URL: http/www.scubaboard.com/forums/forum.php I {gzip}
Infection: HTML:script-inf
Processus:C:\Program Files(x86)\Google\Chrom\Application\chromex.exe

thanks

The "Camera" is an extension which takes a full page screenshot.

As I stated earlier gzip is a compression used to make page loads faster. Avast has a history of diagnosing this as a false positive.

I am an olf F................. thanks

From one fumbling old fart to another, let me see if I can help here.

Yes I have chrome and I cannot see the small camera you are mentionning in your post.

The "extension" is a little program that is added to your Chrome browser. Go to https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/full-page-screen-capture/fdpohaocaechififmbbbbbknoalclacl
Then click the Free tab to start adding it.
After you get it added, the camera icon will show up.

Then, when you see that Avast alert, click that icon - and wait. It takes a few seconds, then it will open up the new screen grab pic in a new tab, which you can save to post here.

Ok, I am getting some hits again. Yesterday, I got this while surfing Scubaboard...


Tonight I got that, then this...

Additionally, yesterday & today - following those hits, I was unable to access the site at all - altho I could access other sites.

I try to get more info on these hits, but by the time I grab a snip pic, the link to details is gone.

Same here. Seems to show up all of a sudden for a while... then goes away.
