I hate antivirus false positives

Postby Random American » Tue Aug 02, 2022 6:58 pm

When accessing this site, Bitdefender was spamming this message at me at regular intervals:

firefox.exe attempted to establish a connection relying on an unmatching security certificate to s.t5.ro. We blocked the connection to keep your data safe since the used certificate was issued for a different web address than the targeted one.


I added it to my exceptions list. Honestly, with antivirus software, false alarms seem more common to encounter than actual malware/threats.

I use Kaspersky.
Also NOD32 is good.
