Advice Needed


I know others have discussed this. No matter what exclusion I add to Malwarebytes, the "Website blocked due to riskware" warning pops up. It does allow me onto Audiogon, but starting today it keeps popping up as I am reading different threads, versus previously just once when first coming onto the website. Does someone have the correct "exclusion" to add to Malwarebytes? 

Moderators, I can't be the only one with this problem, can you provide the correct "exclusion"?


Thanks in advance.

Thanks stereo5 for your suggestion.  This has been going on for a couple of weeks or so.  The Malwarebytes pop up says I can exclude the webpage from being considered "riskware", and I have entered audiogon's webpage name and IP address using several different names/numbers and the pop up keeps happening.  Like 10-12 times a minute.  Maybe the "riskware" warning is true.  I have been on audiogon and have had Malwarebytes forever.  The warning says:

"Riskware, or “risky software,” describes legitimate software programs that contain loopholes or vulnerabilities that can be exploited by hackers for malicious purposes."
Thanks al and new, I am really not worried about "riskware", but just would like its constant malawarebytes message invasion to stop.
jrpnde, I could not agree with you more about Malwarebytes slowing down computer speed and being a memory hog, that is a well documented fact.  Truth be told, Malwarebytes has never given me a "riskware" warning before or after the persistent Audiogon messages and I do wonder if there was anything to them. But thanks to the heads up from stereo5 the messages are gone.

I am running the Windows Defender that comes with Windows 10, the free version of Avast, and have a lifetime license to Malwarebytes, from when you could purchase them.  Knock wood, things have been running fine for a while now, other than the previous pesky Audiogon "riskware" warning.
