OvidiuC 1 Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Guys, this is a serious issue. I've had this alert popup on me when visiting a site, saying it has JS/Adware.Agent.AC (I control the website which had this alert, but we were requesting a third party script on that page). I had to disable the antivirus to see which one. Regardless... Next I run a full system scan, just to be sure. For the same alleged threat, the antivirus deleted from my computer SQL dumps (backups) that I have personally made a long time ago. So these were .sql files, that I have made. Even if the contents of the SQL statements would have contained shady javascript (there was HTML/JS in them), how could those have harmed my computer, being in SQL statements? Had to stop the system scan, as who knows what else could have deleted from my computer. Not cool. You can't just delete files from my computer just because they contain obfuscated javascript. As a side note, my work has a lot of obfuscated JS in it... that I've obfuscated. Are you just going to delete my work because I need to obfuscate it?

Diddy Cool 1 Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Ir proves my point - you detected no virus or any malware. You blacklist the site simply because Exoclick is a ads provider. The site is safe. And Exoclick may have served some ads with adware that is beyond their control. And you detected none whatsoever. If this is not blacklisting, what is? What is the solution? Please ask me to change ads company. They are the biggest and the best alternative to Google. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, not all web rep scanners "are created equal." Below is a screen shot of Quttera's scan of the web site. Note that it will actually download and analyze what the web site is serving up. Here's the link to the detailed report: https://quttera.com/detailed_report/scandalshack.com Also expect to see a lot more AV detections of this web site on VirusTotal. Everytime I run a Quttera scan like this, the VT detection rate afterwards "skyrockets." Edited August 31, 2018 by itman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Marcos 5,070 Posted August 31, 2018 Administrators Share Posted August 31, 2018 Exoclick can contact us directly and we will explain them what the problem is. Our primary goal is to protect our users. The detection will remain unchanged until Exoclick sorts out the issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diddy Cool 1 Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 of course I can't accept what you said. you detected nothing. and then you use another nonsensensical site telling there are suspicious files. .. WHAT ARE THE VIRUS? Nothing. Just some cached pages with Exoclick.com Also. There is nothing to download from my site. What can go wrong? Why wouldn't Google ban the site. And while is this Quaterra. .. You? so, you trust this Quaternary blindly instead of almost 70 industry heavy weights like Sucuri and Google? are you going to blacklist the site forever? Prove to me there are virus Or I will rally the world to boycott Eset. hope you understand the consequences. BTW. I urge you to check what's Exoclick revenue... are you bigger than them? Do something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Marcos 5,070 Posted August 31, 2018 Administrators Share Posted August 31, 2018 Since everything has been said and explained, we will draw this topic to a close. It's ExoClick's turn now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
