stac Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 Just went onto Trevor's site and my Norton's went nuts! All sorts of nasty things tried to invade my computer!! Be careful guys... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jkay Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 No, that's not the problem. Google flagged trevortime.com as an "attack site" and now most mainstream anti-malware apps (which use Google as a source of blacklist info) sound an alarm when you go there. Firefox won't even open a window for Trevor's site unless you turn off BLOCK FLAGGED SITES in prefs. Unless I'm mis-understanding. Did Norton specifically name the viruses or trojans which were trying to come and get your 'puter? I run an enterprise-grade firewall here, and it's set up to detect actual attacks .. not just read a Google list and react to it, and no alarm bells have sounded from that firewall machine. It's been this way for a week. It would help if Trevor would visit the forums he's approved for, and explain the issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stac Posted October 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 Yes...named two specific virus's. I'm very tec savy and I don't remember them. Nortons said it blocked the intrusion and eliminated the threat...whatever that means? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kuli Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 There is spyware on the site. My microsoft defender cleaned out some download that was attempting to execute off his site and google always warns about accepting a download when i ignore the initial warning.
