Anyone having any trouble with this? One of our members has asked me to post here about the problem he is having. Evidently Avast AV is blocking him from the Blitz, on account of Malware?
We're aware of the problem and have submitted a trouble ticket to Avast. Suggest he do the same. The site scans show no malware: http://sitecheck.sucuri.net/results/theblitz.club. Totally clean. I suspect Avast had a recent update that's seeing Raz's customizations as javascript injection hacks, but I'm guessing. It's the only anti-virus flagging the site that I'm aware of.

Users experiencing this problem can use another free anti-virus like AVG or Microsoft Essentials, or hope Avast fixes the problem. The more trouble tickets they receive, the more likey that will be.

Thanks Dave, I also asked him to update his definitions, just in case. I read up on Avast, seems this has happened before for quite a few folks , not this site, other sites!
Yes I'm having problems with this too at the moment, luckly I can use a notebook with ubuntu on and still access the site but on a limited basis at the moment, Avast is a very good bit of software but it seem to exception to the site in the last few days.

Hope it gets sorted soon.
It's all sorted now, Just grab the latest set of definitions and it's all fine.

thanks Raz. Cheers Pirates
Everything is fine again here.
