Administrators Marcos 5,407 Posted May 5, 2022 Administrators Share Posted May 5, 2022 What website is it? Whether it was compromised cannot be 100% determined via the VirusTotal service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First of all, the url check feature checks a website against blacklists only. It does not scan actual files on websites. To check actual web content, run a Quttera scan instead.

FJCZ 0 Posted May 5, 2022 Author Share Posted May 5, 2022 Hi Marcos, Thanks for your reply. The web site is hxxp://dutyfreeholding.com/ I want to know why ESET is blocking that website? Could you help me with that.? What is the reason? I scan the website with Quttera scan as you suggested and it is clean. Normalized URL: https://dutyfreeholding.com/ Last scan date: 5/5/2022, 12:30:27 PM Current status: Clean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firefox also blocks the website; reason : dutyfreeholding.com uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because it is self-signed.

Administrators Marcos 5,407 Posted May 6, 2022 Administrators Share Posted May 6, 2022 Not all websites that contain malware are blacklisted. For instance, we cannot blacklist gmail just because users receive malware in a gmail mailbox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FJCZ 0 Posted May 7, 2022 Author Share Posted May 7, 2022 Ok, right now who is blocking the Website is ESET because of PUA. I want to know the reason ESET is blocking the website. There is a way i could be able to know the reason? I checked the url with the web page that you recommended Quttera scan and the url is clean. how can i open this website if ESET is not removing the website? I do not want to disable completely PUA.
