So for the past couple of minutes, sites such as Facebook, Youtube and Xbox.com are all being blocked by Avast Antivirus for having things such as Trojans and Malware. Anyone else having this problem or is it just me? Facebook is being blocked for trojans youtube and xbox.com are being blocked for malware. What the fuck avast, what's going on here. Fixed now.
:tinfoil: I [i]think[/i] it's just you. I have Panda Cloud and I haven't got anything yet.
I have Avast and I do not have such problems

Noticed it when I went to [url]http://www.ivona.com/#[/url] ( this thread [url]http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1076867-IVONA-quot-realistic-quot-text-to-speech-voice-very-fun[/url]. ) Looks like it's blocking the Facebook "like" button or something like that. Good! Whohaa, shit I just scanned my computer with Avast and it found over 3k infected files, all .html/.htm files. For example. C:\Program Files (x86)\RocketDock\Help\English\Index.html. Html files in bad company 2 folder, crysis folder, dead space, adobe photoshop, premiere, after effects and the list goes on. Pretty much everything. I Guess I should not delete all these files.
Avast is blocking random websites for me including google searches and my college's website

I'm getting a lot of malware warnings though which is strange because it was perfectly fine yesterday.
[url]http://www.facebook.com/avast[/url] Many users complaining. I'm sure it will be fixed soon.
Fixed.
I've got the same thing man Just disable it until they fix the problem I guess
Welp, turns out I had like over 3000+ viruses (had to do a boot-time scan). Most of it malware, and quite a few trojan horses and very few worms. I got it removed though.
