Avast AntiVirus False Positive

[tctpcrio]

It has come to my attention that Avast Antivirus is detecting one of x10hosting's IP address, therefore is blocking websites that is assigned to this IP address for Avast Antivirus users.
http://whatismyipaddress.com/ip/198.91.81.5

I will try to contact Avast and I will say that this is a false positive detection. I just wanted to let everyone know about this. That is all.

We've seen that before, spam the "report file as false positive" link like I am The page that gets returned at that web address is a plain-text 500ISE, so I'm betting it's more likely there was some other malicious page on the server that they blocked, but they blocked it stupidly, which causes everyone a headache.

"Avast Antivirus" is will known for false positives

put the IP [ 198.91.81.5 ] in the box at URL [ http://whatismyipaddress.com/blacklist-check ] - and you will receive no hits on the list

BTW - that IP is for all accounts on x10hosting's free-hosting server [ xo4 ]
