Avast blocking twitter

Avast Free Antivirus / Premium Security
1

Avast has blocked access to https://huawei.com/ because the server certificate has expired.

Hello whatever i browse twitter on my PC Avast keep showing me these notifications,

Twitter is working fine but this message keep showing up a lot it’s annoying i end up disabling Avast.

It has been going for a while now and it’s really annoying.

Are you sure it is avast blocking, a screenshot might help.

I tried the link using Firefox and it was blocked, by FIREFOX not Avast, see attached image.
Is this what you are seeing ?

If you connect to the learn more link:

Though I couldn’t see anything relating to a revoked certificate “Error code: SEC_ERROR_REVOKED_CERTIFICATE”

This nofitcation shows up whenver i’m trying to access twitter
Twitter is working fine but every time i open it this message show up multiple times.

Well that is pretty much the same message I got, but Firefox got there first.

What browser are you using ?
What avast free version 21.11.2500 (build 21.11.6809.528) what version are you using ?

I’m fairly sure if Firefox hadn’t blocked it I would have got the same alert from Avast.

The thing is that I get it on the huawai.com site I’m not trying to access twitter. So I can only assume that there is some related huawai content being accessed in twitter.

I’m using microsoft edge (chromium latest)
Also using Avast premium security ver 22.1.2504- build 22.1.6921.707 (latest)

I don’t get it anywhere even huawei.com but only on twitter
the only thing i have connected to huawei is my huawei phone.

Is it the avast firewall or just avast program?
It’s really annoying to have it constantly pop up.

6

Well I’m not using the 22.1.xxxx version and I haven’t installed the avast firewall.

I don’t use Edge as I don’t like chromium based browsers.

I can’t see why you would not get it in huawei.com as clearly its server certificate has been revoked. Why would an alert on huawei.com (as your image indicates) when visiting twitter and not a direct connect huawei.com is beyond me.

Thank you anyway, is there anyway i can contact avast support? all i’m see in the app is to ask in this forum.

Unfortunately with Avast Free, program support is via the forums and for the most part it is avast users like myself trying to help other avast users.

Is there any particular action you are doing in twitter that results in this error ?
If so perhaps someone using twitter can check it out.
