    Default Avast giving warnings when I try to download repo files

    On some repo files, Avast blocks the download saying the download page has a url:mal infection. I'd assume that it's a false alarm, but you should probably look into it. The repo files this happened on are these:

    I have Avast, and when I click the download button, it says that page is unavailable.

    You can get AVG for free. Just either get last years version, or keep renewing your 1 month premium trial.

    This is happening to every file I download. After I close the warning message, I can download the file, but the next one I try returns the same message.
    Here is an example URL http://ror.uk.moooo.org//d2a58fe791b...kswagen_T3.zip

    EDIT: I cant download lilgti's FJ cruiser at all, I keep getting the threat detected message and Chrome returns a page not found error.
