Occasional (rare) virus alarm on websites myVidster + Redtube !!!!

Viruses and worms
1

For about a week my Avast free virus version 7.0.1466 has been reporting alleged viruses in a few individual videos of the websites myVidster and Redtube. As this never happened before to such an extent, i ask myself whether my avast anti-virus version is possibly wrong in these cases. There has been no actual virus infestation of my computer since these “alarms” started, so either avast protects very well or something about these alarms is not real. In a few rare cases the whole websites were reported to be “dangerous” + then - when i logged in at another time - such an alarm did not come ! These “phenomenons” don’t occur very often, yet they irritate me.

There were also never any virus alarms for both websites by former anti-virus protection software or (by avast) downloaded on my computer BEFORE !

Seit ca. 1 Woche meldet mir meine Avast free anti-virus - Version 7.0.1466 angebliche Viren in EINZELNEN Videos der beiden Websites myVidster und Redtibe. Da dies in einem solchen Umfang noch nie vorkam, frage ich mich, ob sich avast in diesem Fall nicht irrt. Es hat keinen tatsächlichen Viren/Malware-Befall meines Computers gegeben. In einen paar seltenen Fällen wurden beide Websites direkt nach meinem Einloggen als “gefährlich” erklärt, beim Wieder-Einloggen zu einem anderen Zeitpunkt kam diese Meldung jedoch nicht. Das Ganze kommt nicht sehr häufig vor, aber es irritiert mich schon !

Visiting porn sites is always a huge risk in itself so i would not doubt that avast is probably correct in it’s detections/warnings, my best advice is to get a hobbie and stop visiting those types of sites :slight_smile:

Actually my research indicates that those sites are generally safer than networking sites (facebook et al )
Although they will still get the ocassional malware insertion it is quite rare
