    my site is blocked

    AVG has blocked all access to my website... All my machines and even my friends machines run AVG as well.

    AVG is also much larger in popularity for anti-virus these days (because its free) compared to others so this must be affecting a ton of people :/

    nothing i can do about it, huh?

    Re: my site is blocked

    I've left an IM for staff (I don't think the one in question is actually awake at the moment), but can you paste the full contents of the error it's displaying, and what service it's coming from?

    I say service cause it isn't AVG's LinkScanner - LinkScanner is showing your site as okay, same with another user who just posted that they're having the same issue. Something else of AVG's apparently doesn't like us, and while it might still be a bit to resolve it's a good start if we can figure out which service of theirs is complaining...

    Forwarded to staff; I'm escalating this ticket as well for assistance. Keep an eye on your email and account panel for updates on it as it'll appear locked on the forum.

    I've left IM's for the CEO though noting that, and I quote, "Apparently AVG went and now does the same crap McAfee does, but does it for the entire server." Which also covers how I feel on it, since a single look-see through the x10hosting page shows it's a free hosting company, which would imply that black-flagging an entire server would be a -bad- thing, but apparently they either didn't look or don't feel the same. Here's hoping for a speedy resolution!
