Blocked by PUA but called by ESET Password Manager

[Adam_Ca 0]

Hi Everyone,

i got messages (site blocked by PUA), when i check the exe and see it's the pwm.exe... it's calling some websites that i believe it's unsafe (justhookup.com / downloadprovider.me ..etc).

i scanned the path and it come clean ..

any clue what is going on ?

Thanks,

Adam

Check your Trusted websites list in Password manager and verify if any of the URLs listed in your screen shot got added there somehow.

Of note is all the web sites being blocked are http sites. As such, I would think there would be not be login web pages associated with them which are usually displayed in https mode.

i agree to your notes, however, pwm.exe calls these website in which i suspect something wrong here, don't you agree ?

Do the PUA blocks only occur when the browser is open? Or are these blocks occurring when no Internet facing app is running?
