Problem with vizcloud website and Bitdefender
I keep getting these:
********************
Suspicious web page detected
Online Threat Prevention
The webpage https://vizcloud.live/ has been detected as suspicious. Although the page is not blocked, it is not recommended to continue browsing this page.
Accessed by: brave.exe
********************
The address changes slightly... sometimes it's vizcloud.xyz, sometimes it's a randomly generated prefix (like "pjwdk.vizcloud.live")
I googled to see if someone has a similar problem because it's spamming the hell out of me when I'm doing other things and Bitdefender keeps taking the focus from my currently active program.
So I both want to:
1) Know if this is a new threat that you guys need to include in your defin ... (it just interrupted me as I was typing) ... definitions.
2) Know why the hell would you steal focus from active programs? So that we would buy the full version which isn't crippled like this?

Hello @NoThanks and welcome to the Community!
This situation is caused by the fact that the website in the notification has an expired certificate.
If you do not visit the website and you still receive these notifications, then your browser connects to it either through allowed notifications or toolbars/extensions. I suggest that you clear the cache & cookies, remove any unused/unknown extensions and if the issues persist, reset your browser. You can find these steps here:

Alternatively, you can add an exception for the website in Bitdefender - Protection - Online Threat Prevention - Manage Exceptions, or, from the same area (Online Threat Prevention) - disable the Encrypted Web Scan feature which scans for the certificates of websites (not a recommended action).
I hope this information is helpful.
Best regards.
