How do you get to a site....

Just like to know how to get to a site that Nod 32 has decided to block me from with a pop up telling me that site has bugs in it and you aint going on it.

 

What is the URL of the website being blocked?

If you feel it may be blocked in error, you can submit it to ESET's Labs for inspection:

kb.eset.com/esetkb/index?page=content&id=SOLN141&ref=wsf

 

Hello Atwellwa and welcome to Wilders

Maybe you can check the URL with one of these services to see what they say, if you wish?

http://www.urlvoid.com/

http://global.sitesafety.trendmicro.com/

 

Remember that circumventing a blockage may result in malware infection or installation of potentially unwanted software on your computer. There's always reason why certain pages are blocked.

 

Thanks for quick reply Guys

Dermot7 Thanks for welcome, put url through both sites you recomended and they both returned results that the site was clean and no probs.

The site in question is a P2P site

 

Ok, but please take good note of what Marcos said, and know that p2p can be very dangerous.

 

'preciate what Marcos and yourself say but the site in question is deemed to be one of the safest p2p sites around. Dont get me wrong i understand that NOD is doing what i pay it to do have had it for 3 years now and well pleased thats why i keep paying for it year on year.

I use this p2p site mostly for tv progs that start in uk and then jump to HBO.

 

@Atwellwa, just FYI, some of the many references citing the dangers/issues associated with P2P :

Dermot7..... Digested all of your links and am fully aware of problems of P2P sites thats why my system is fully loaded with anti malaware proggys and NOD32. What i am trying to find out is why ESET has only just blocked this site 2 days ago. Why do the 2 links you gave me say the site is clean and ok.

Do ESET know something they dont or is it belt & braces time for ESET.

Am not knocking ESET,as i rate it a very good AV just curious as to why its just blocked that one site.

Thanks for your input.

 

I don't know which torrent site your using but wondering if the link below might be of interest.

Spot on Jdeane............the mud has cleared and i can see clearly now

Thanks for your time and help everyone.

 

• Link to threat corrected •
Link infected with JS/Kryptik.AY Proceed with extreme caution.

 

I reported this to moderators, no response.
Very odd that an Eset employee would post a link that is detected as malware by their AV, without some type of explanation.

 

No, it's NOT infected it's a detection due to all the "suspicious"(in lack of better word) content on the site. It has always been like that

The site even gives you a warning before one visit did you guys miss that, or didn't read?

 

So, I should blindly take the site's word as truth?
If the site isn't infected, ESET should fix the alert as a false positive.

 

Yes, because it's a safe site and a good company behind it
Wich provided great info for the OP in this thread.

Maybe not the sites words, but ESET's at least.

Afaik It's not that type of FP

 

Great. From now on, if I encounter
malware and the website says it isn't malware, I'll turn off Eset. Great idea.

 

Really?

Or did I misunderstood what you just said.....

http://www.checksite.us/

:/ those will check if the site is up or not
hope they are not infected Open at ur own risk

 

All websites can be hijacked and infected with malware. It has happened to majorgeeks.com. That is why I pay for AV protection and trust what my antivirus tells me. If it is a false positive, ESET should fix it.

 

I have asked for the link to be obfuscated delinked, The Moderating Team have been alerted. Please be reminded it is the weekend not all are on duty 24 x 7.

This will be addressed in due time.

Thank you.

 

I am not going to explain over and over again.

Best solution for you is to wait for an reply from the ESET staff.

 

I am not interested in an explanation from you. Unfortunately, you are unable to
understand the problem.

 

So be it.

Should I say the same about you
I am not unable to understand the problem, but I am unable to explain it to you.

Afaik It's the first time you visit this blog today, and you think it is infected.
I on the other hand have visited the blog many times and I always see the same popup from ESS. And I know that it's not infected.

ESET can explain the cause for the "detection"....over and out!

 

No. Eset thinks it's infected. That's the point.
