Perhaps the answer is that all the problems are with Gen Digital products.

It should be noted that the decision was made to require a login to view or post images on the site. This was to make it so that the service did not attract unwanted users. It may be that the algorithm used by Gen Digital products is triggered (falsely) by this requirement.

Interestingly Norton has also had a history of blocking legitimate sites.

In any case there is little that anyone can do to resolve this issue. It seems that this multinational has acquired the major part of popular AV programs, including Avira which I use. So far Avira has not given me any problems but I am only using the free version, which is perhaps not set to monitor suspicious web sites.
