Norton
 

I've got norton security on my computer and I've been getting a pop up saying that this site is unsafe. It comes up in a box with red letters. It says I have 43 threats to my computer. Should I send a message to admin? I am concerned. I sure don't want anything to happen to my computer! Anybody else have this happen before?

I've used Norton before and not gotten that message. I"m not using it now though. I don't get any security notices on this site - but then I'm on a Mac.

I have used Norton and never got any such messages. I use Bitdefender now, and it has a weird glitch too.

You might try to uninstall Norton, and then reinstall it.

Norton caused by computer to run slow so I switched to Kasperky. I don't have any problems with it at all.

Bitdefender also slows the computer down. I think I have a few months left on it, and then I may try Kaspersky (sp?) It has very high ratings too!

I have it as well was getting concerned was going to ask the same.

I have been getting on this site anyway! Nothing has happened to my computer, apparantly not yours either huh? Maybe I will just send a message to admin. Did you click on full details? It has a big x and says site owner click here. It also has a name of the file or whatever that is supposed to be the risk. I'll open it again and post the name of that. I hope we can get this figured out.

Ok I just opened it and here is what it says.

Threat name
Trojan.Maliframe!html
Location
Gives this site

Says it's a virus

I'm sending a message to admin right now.

I've not had a problem so far.

Thanks Judy....my spelling was not right...LOL.

I just googled the virus. It seems to be a symantecs/norton thing. Here is a site that talks about it.

Wow...Judy...you're good!!! I know who I'll come to if I ever have a virus!

Wow Judy! Thanks for your great detective work! I am going to check those links momentarily. Thanks again!:)

That's the same stuff that I was having problems with. It's a really bad virus!! I hope you get rid of it. I changed my protection to AVG and I haven't had any more problems.

I did get a reply back from admin. They checked the site and it is safe. Thank goodness. Judy was absolutely right. It is a norton thing. Hubby will be working on it tomorrow. I tend to fat finger things. He is better at taking it slow and easy lol!

No biggie...I just googled it. I am very google literate, which means that if I want to know about something, I google it. It took me till this year to learn to do that!

According to Symantec, it is a low risk virus. It is their own glitch, so I wouldn't worry about it too much.
