Hi,
My website is blacklisted by Avast since several months and I can’t figure out why.
It claims a malware infection
However, it comes up clean at virustotal.com , quttera.com , urlvoid.com and sucuri
How can I get the blacklist status removed?
Or, have I missed something?

Multiple domains on same IP and many are blacklisted
IP history https://www.virustotal.com/nb/ip-address/89.200.138.65/information/
click more button under list for extra info
http://www.urlvoid.com/ip/89.200.138.65
[b]IP ADDRESS: 89.200.138.65[/b]
We have found in our database of already analyzed websites that there are 92 websites hosted in the same web server with IP address 89.200.138.65 and IP hostname web10.webserver.ie. Remember that it is not good to have too many websites located in the same web server because if a website gets infected by malware, it can easily affect the online reputation of the IP address and also of all the other websites.
so, seems like a IP block…

Thanks, that’s helpful information.
My hosting provider is www.stormweb.ie.
Is that something I need to take up with them? Should I ask them to move the site to another server?
Possibly all of their servers have 92 sites on them and quite possible there are blacklisted sites on each
Or, is avast being to severe by blacklisting me because of other problem sites on the server?
I appreciate any suggestions on way forward
