Going through my Firewall, I noted at boot up first on the list is 62.212.82.102, so I got curious and did a search, I got-:
62.212.82.102 was not found in our database
This IP address belongs to a High Risk Hosting Provider
ISP: LeaseWeb B.V.
Host Name: a349vg.avast.com
Organization: HostingXS
Country: Netherlands (NL)
City: N/A
Report 62.212.82.102 Whois 62.212.82.102
Why should Avast use a ‘High risk hosting provider’, is this not risky?
Rather depends on whom is saying it is a High Risk Hosting provider and for what reason.
Thanks Craigb.
Just that I was curious what the IP was, here’s the one I got the info from http://www.abuseipdb.com/
Gee, you don’t know who to believe these days, obviously they’re using different ‘yard sticks’ so to speak.

As DavidR said " depends on whom is saying it "
How often they update there databases and from where they gather there information makes all the difference.
Seeing that gives zero information on why they consider it a high risk Hosting Provider (my why in last post).
Looking further at the stuff on that page, it seems they are trying to give you a headache only to sell you an aspirin.
Me I don’t like resources like this which give zero information so a user can make an informed decision.

Lol, I like that expression… I agree after looking further at the advert, stands out like a sore thumb, now I see your point… had to look twice!
