ZimbiIV Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 I have tried looking at the Barclays Bank topic but it gets blocked as a phishing link. Has anyone else had a problem? paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranworthbreeze Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Hello Paul, As I said when I answered your message Malwarebytes is not showing any problems regarding the topic and the two links that have been featured in the topic.

ZimbiIV Posted April 6, 2017 Author Share Posted April 6, 2017 Thank you both, Kaspersky is showing the problem, I just did not want any problems with the site. Maybe the Russians don't like the Daily Mail. paul 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smellyloo Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Hi Is there anything wrong with the above topic. Kaspersky blocks access with the following message:- The requested URL cannot be providedURL: http://forum.norfolkbroadsnetwork.com/to<...> Blocked by Web Anti-Virus Reason: phishing URLClick here if you believe that the web page has been blocked mistakenly. Detection method: heuristic analysis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExUserGone Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Probably mention of banks and fraudulent withdrawals causing it to pick it up as phishing scam, I doubt there's any actual threat from it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smellyloo Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Maybe But strange that it wasn't blocked yesterday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonRascal Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 The key is "heuristic analysis" - this is basally the software guessing. Since yesterday more may have been posted, and now the software is playing it safe - providing a 'false positive'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smellyloo Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 OK. Thanks for looking into this. On reflection I can live without reading that particular thread but it could lead to the casual visitor mistrusing our site if they also receive this message.

Poppy Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 The link I posted was to a genuine Daily Fail site. My software didn't flag it up as anything dodgy when I opened it - even though it's the Daily Seig Heil 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
