Not seeing anything from Norton. Its undoubtedly one of the add servers they use

Just out of interest, does Avast have any problems with https://hclips.com/ ?? they are one of our affiliates but Norton wont let me anywhere near it. Ive notified them but they dont have Norton and therefore cant see the problem

I have not visited xHaster in a while and tested it and got the same warning from my Avast.

I clicked on that link and on a video, waited for both to fully load, no warning from Avast this end.

Think it was yet another problem with the reputation of an add server

You have to be real careful which add servers you use because this kind of thing is happening more and more these days. Im finding affiliates sites that are blocked by Norton on an almost weekly basis and every time the webmaster has no idea !

The problem is unless you are running Avast or Norton (or whatever app is blocking you) then you wont see the problem

How does that work they register to your program and paste banners as any regular affiliate?

Yes exactly that. They post our videos and each one is linked back to us via their affiliate code. We have the same thing with pornhub, youporn and lots of the big tube sites
