Blacklist a URL
I am getting repeated warnings from Bitdefender Total Security about connections from or to a suspicious URL. The warnings are popping up every 10 minutes or so. The site is reignn.com. I want to just blacklist the URL permanently, but I can't see how to do that?

Hello @Accommodation and welcome to the Community!
The notifications come from the Online Threat Prevention module, which is designed to scan all web traffic and block any malicious content – infected URLs, untrusted web pages, fraudulent and phishing links.
Whenever you try to visit a website classified as unsafe, the website is blocked and a warning is displayed in your browser. The warning contains information such as the page URL and the detected threat.
You cannot blacklist the URL, however, you can submit a request to Bitdefender Labs to fix the incorrect blocking of the website. Once confirmed, false alarms are corrected within hours via automatic update of Bitdefender and you will no longer receive such notifications.
I hope this helps.
Stay safe.

Kindly follow the instruction provided by @Gjoksi in above post to share the required url with malware researchers.

Hello.
Only the anti-malware researchers at Bitdefender Labs can help you with the issue.
You should report the URL(s) as false negative to Bitdefender Labs here:
https://www.bitdefender.com/consumer/support/answer/29358/
You could also share the VirusTotal link of the URL(s) to the anti-malware researchers.

Hi,
Apart from the Parental Control feature, I see no other option in the antivirus that can achieve that. But I think many web browsers allow you to blacklist or block URLs via extensions, which let you add sites to a blacklist. These are usually quick to set up, easy to toggle on/off, however one disadvantage would be that this only works in that specific browser.
