Administrator! It happened again!
« on: April 02, 2015, 08:47:11 AM »
Just a few moments ago while I was on Security and Survival my security program kicked me off of the internet because of a virus and while typing this my program alerted me it blocked another risk. Is anyone else having this problem?

Not here.  Either I am infected like hell or Windows Defender is real effective.

What exactly does the warning say?

Are you sure the warning is actually coming from YOUR security app?
 
Could it be a pop-up window from another tab you have open - pretending to be a security app and trying to make you click their button/link?

It's not a popup but in the lower right corner a notice in red says Norton security has blocked ********. Your computor is safe. 
I run a virus scan everynight when I log off and the night before last I ran a full system scan at logoff.

I never saw a warning like that and the site is regularly scanned.
It would be helpful if you could share the complete warning message.

Also, are you only browsing UP when the warning appears?

As always I recommend people to run regularly an anti malware tool, I like to use Malwarebytes anti malware

How do I do that? There isn't any place on Norton or in my control panel security center to add anything?

I run FireFox. With Firefox up at the right corner of the tool bar there is a icon with three horizontal lines. That is my memu. I click on it and chose options then up at the top of the next menu I click Security. Then I click Exceptions. Once I have done that i just follow the instructions and add the UP url.

Hope that helps Jojo

Hi Special K It has blocked an attack and it gives the name of the Virus/malware.
