When I try to open the George Concepts thread in the Graphics part of the forums, I get a malware blocked notification from Avast 5.0 antivirus. The web address that produces this notification is:
Edit: Removed the address, as the link in question was also removed. The problem was a link to a screenshot in Zanzibar`s post.
Is this some sort of a false positive or a real problem?

Re: George Concepts thread produces a malware warning on my syst
Siteadvisor's report doesn't have any issues with onelastcontinue.com. onlinelinkscan also reports no problems with the specific URL you mention.
Does Avast give any indication of what the problem is?

"Infection: HTML:Script-inf
The threat was detected and blocked while downloading an item from the web."
I also forget /06/ from the web address. Now the address should be complete.

Weird. I edited the post with that link to remove it, since it seems to be broken anyway. Hopefully that fixed the problem...?

Its a false positive.
Maybe the adobe photoshop signature in the picture triggers the warning (look at offset 26E9 and 3808)

This might be possible, since I did a web search and found out that others had also experienced similar problems with some uninfected sites. However I am not sure what version of Avast those users were using.dwlg122 wrote:Its a false positive.
