avast false advertising

FYI

I thought this should be brought to the attention of the avast administrators This web site http://www.techimo.com/forum/technical-support/165307-dcom-exploit.html shows a link for AVAST that does not link the user to anything “avast” but actually links the user to a different site that i now notice channges every time you open the site

Things that make you go “hmmmm” ???

If they go behind any fake link to avast they will go crazy…
People need to learn to get things from trusted sources.
Anyway, thanks for the info (better hxxp than http live link though).

huh ??? i’m sorry but im not understanding your relply

Change HTTP to HXXP in your links so new people can’t click on them by accident.

o i c i c k done

I can’t find it. But in case, wrong links can’t be helped somehow since its a user forum afterall.

Cant find what ??? If you look at my first post i.ve fixed the link.

The problem is not that the link was not clickable, i think he meant that he cant fiend the avast link on the website

o its there trust me 8) and now i notice that everytime you open the page the fake avast link takes you to a different site every its open. ive counted 4 different ones now

Turn off your ad-blockers and Script blockers and you will see ( I did this under virtualization protection.). It’s an odd forum full of advertisements. There seems to be random links in comments and one of them happens to be the word “Avast!.” Personally, I don’t like to browse such a forum.

I agree and it’s now added to my CRAP list

Now I know why I can’t find it. :slight_smile: Sorry for the bother.
