False positive block on www.yourhealthwidebay.org.au
Hello,
Apologies if this is the wrong place to post this enquiry. Could you please investigate www.yourhealthwidebay.org.au with a view to whitelisting it or removing the block it seems to have on it. We have Webroot SecureAnywhere Endpoint Protection and whenever we visit that website using Internet Explorer we get:
Warning
www.yourhealthwidebay.org.au
(Contains malicious content)
This website contains a known threat and has been blocked.
www.yourhealthwidebay.org.au is a non-profit government health website and provides full organisational contact details etc and verifiable physical address. If there are any legitimate security issues with it, please advise so the website administrator can be contacted.
Thank you for your time.
Best regards,

This site doesn't appear to be blocked anymore on my test box. Are you all set Hepqld?

Interesting - it does it on my Win7 box but not my WinXP box. I'll see what else I can discover. The best course of action is still contacting support though.
+6IMPORTANT: Make sure you include the relevant lines from the Webroot scan log when you submit a support ticket. I had a problem like this before and they were not able to find the block without the exact URL address from my scan log for some reason.
Yes, the same observed on my end. Considering Jim's findings it looks like that on Vista/Win7 the site is still being blocked even though it has already been whitelisted.

TH, as for the Opera flashing it's the known issue that Webroot support confirmed and is working on to address it. Please see what Jim said:
"It's scheduled to be dealt with, and we haven't forgotten about it. There are changes coming in the future that will ultimately resolve this problem. Rather than expending resources on patching the bug in the short term, resources are being focused on a more robust, permanent solution that, while it takes a little longer to develop, will be worth it."
