    It could be on a specific page. I never am comfortable when forum users can upload graphics to comment sections. Just have forum posters include a link to imgur or other picture host.

    Heartbleed bug dude. I asked if this website uses OpenSSL. Like on April 9th and no tweet back. Maybe they never seen it. Or just ignored it. I'm a Security Admin and we had to update all of our systems. ePO, SIEM, McAfee Gateway. Was a *** mess.

    So admins. Does this website use OpenSSL and if you guys do, did you patch?

    Our Security Team has confirmed that this is a false positive, so nothing to be alarmed about. We're still looking into what is triggering the false positive and will update this thread when we know more.

    It doesn't say https:// in the address bar, so that usually means no.

    One of the hardest things about Heartbleed bug is you can't tell which sites have it unless you are the hosting site, so Avast cannot know. It appears to be an issue with Avast triggering on a new Adobe build.

    Go to ssllabs.com and run a test on https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com.

    No Heartbleed. Of course the forum isn't the same as ZOS's account management.

    Small quibble here.

    Until you know what triggered a false positive, you can't actually assert that it is in fact a false positive.

    I gave up using Avast a long time ago, it was producing false positives then. Looks like it hasn't changed.
