I pay $2 per month to Windscribe. For this price you get to select a server I pay for US which includes a Netflix IP, Unlimited traffic and what they call R.O.B.E.R.T. You also get free servers which includes the UK and various others. I used Germany today.

I have checked my email via https://mail2.virginmedia.com/appsuite/# twice this morning. I just tried again and AVAST has blocked access saying it's a phishing scam.

Consider changing your AV to something like Bit defender Free or even Windows Defender.
If you want a paid AV with more features I would personally go for Bit defender total security.

Someone must have noticed the false positive, as VM mail is not being flagged today.

Re: Antivirus / anti spyware / Firewall, and computer health thread
NatWest stopped offering premium Malwarebytes to its customers for free earlier this year. I'm soo gutted. I had all my household devices activated. I never noticed the program running, ever. NatWest gave a parting ways offer which was for 2 years only for a selected amount of devices, after that I'm on my own
