Hi, R(a)vast,
I do not use any vpn . I only use firefox for most of the time.
could you let me tell how could I check it , if any vpn is used by me or made to used by me.
I never use vpn.
Could I know, why I am asked this.
i checked my ext. ip in whatismyproxy website and the result is
“Do Not Track” Setting:
Do not track is not enabled in your browser
Hi, redwolfe,
I already tried to uncheck the enable button on my ddns page in router.
Even when i unchecked , it is getting checked i.e enabled on reboot of router.
Moreover, when I bought this to my dlink ccexecutive, he says, that ddns is not configured in my router, as there is no entry in the down portion of the page, I enclose herewith.
Since the connection of pppoe1 is the mode, it is there in the box. I could not see, any other entries in the down portion, as I have not enabled anything.
You say that is disabled in your router.
But what that has to do with my alerts , please say…
your quote:
f you need to have DDNS enabled, i imagine that there is an option to set the avast program to ignore the issue, where it will not generate an alert about DDNS being enabled.
Do you mean to say, that alert from avast is for the ddns and not dns.
If it is already enabled, which i think, is not up to now, how to disable my ddns.
Hi,
Thank you for the clarification. This is a bug and our developers are working on a fix.
Hi, red wolf,
Do I have enabled the ddns? from the above picture please tell.
I do not have any dlink free ddns account and I never use
But I could not just remove the enabled tick permanently from the page, as it comes back on reboot of router.
Expecting your reply on this ddns matter.
Moreover, Dlink stops the ddns service in the year 2020 june or july I suppose,
Hi,
has the bug been fixed in avast software. Could the avast team say, what is the bug in connection with this subject on wifi inspector? would be glad to know the technical details.
Hi,
Is it that the wifi inspector scan scans some selected suspicious sites as avast things as suspicious and if any secured redirects are there, then it flags it as a compromised website, as it redirects, and flag it as dns hijacked?
If you have a secured dns server for some security purposes, then , it will alert as dns hijack otherwise, it will not?
If there is no secured redirect and if the websites are not redirecting , then it is showing as no vulnerability? like public dns , google dns, opendns etc..
So, the websites that avast chooses only gets scanned in wifi inspector? is it not correct? Probably users would have sent the list of websites .
I expect a clear and detailed reply on the above, as it is not only affecting a single individual but so many users.
Hi,
The issue has been fixed and will be realised in the next AV program update (version 21.9).
Hi, r@vast,
Thanks . But you could have given something about the bug.usually avast users log gives the clue to the bug.
can I presume that now genuine and secured dns redirects will be exempted from dns hijack alerts. Believe me, that I thought of discontinuing avast for good when it was said to be compromized with a security lapse years back but avast wouldn’t leave me, as I am familiar with most of the individual menus that this av has.The quick fix of avast , as promised a re-look and I am reporting any issue.
please give clue about the bug. Happy that avast looks at user concern and acknowledging the issues.
