Hello, just today I was not able to access the site or update the database through the "sudo freshclam" command.


Command "freshclam" output:

Site output:
Error 1020 Ray ID: 6eb564255c9f166c • 2022-03-13 14:17:06 UTC
Access denied
What happened?
This website is using a security service to protect itself from online attacks.


But cloudflare in other sites doesn't block me(for example spigotmc.org).Except some sites(1-3 sites,for example systranbox.com).

And...
My IP: 88.210.29.10 (Russia)
I kind of read the news of this antivirus and so far they have not blocked Russian users. Or did they do it?

It’s just that I don’t have any special assumptions anymore why ONLY from my IP address I can’t visit the site and update. Against the background of numerous blockings, only such an idea appears. If this is so, then ... Not only companies, but also ordinary users were blocked, including me.

I am hope for your help.
