The workaround is simple: stop relying on software that is proven to be giving false results and install something more reliable.

My only concern in all this was to verify something that I already knew; that the site is not in any way a phishing site. I went to the trouble only as a matter of responsibility.

I really have to ask; how do you know you have been protected? Because they say so? Perhaps by good fortune you have never really risked a virus attack.

Personally I use Avira (free version) and it has blocked some malware (malware is not a necessarily a virus but something that can come with software that you install that may use your information for advertising or commercial purposes. It can take the form of installing software that you did not want or creating popup advertising messages). Perhaps due to a certain amount of care I have not risked a virus for many years.

I run regular scans for both malware and viruses.

Good luck
Peter
Well Peter they inform me of any incoming threats in real time and the nature of the threat and for me that works.
Having said that any anti virus protection by the very nature of the beast can only ever be behind the game as they cannot predict the next incoming threat they are also victims in a way. This is my logic and I am happy to be corrected if anyone has a predictive AV system .
