Re: Avira warning on webpage - F/P or not?

What browser are you using? I went there again just now on Opera 1010 with Proxo filtering and I clicked on a bunch of stuff. Avira guard did not peep (this is Guard for beta 10 but the virus definitions are the same for all versions of Avira).

One thing I clicked on there was the certificate of membership and Proxo showed a javascript prompt. Either Proxo or Opera blocked it because there was no place to enter my name.

Edit: Maybe I am not getting an alert because I don't have all extended threat categories checked in Avira config?

mele, i have my heuristics set to "high".. maybe that is the difference?

or it could be that your "proxomitron" was blocking out whatever it was that antivir was flagging?

i am using the "firefox" browser with the "adblock plus" and "noscript" addons..

I should have thought of that! That probably is it because I keep heuristics at "medium".

Heuristics set too "high" will do it everytime

I set Avira 10 beta temporarily to High Heuristics on Win 7 and went there again and clicked on a number of things there. Maybe I missed clicking on whatever causes Avira's alert but even on High Heuristics I got no Guard alert. It could be though because of Proxo blocking or sanitizing some script there.
