Hello and Welcome to the Webroot Community!
 
The site shows safe for us Beta Testers as we are testing a new Web Filter Driver that works well so all is good, and to check sites go here: URL/IP Lookup Webroot BC
 
By the looks at Sherry's picture the site is very new so you can ask for a change request here: http://www.brightcloud.com/tools/change-request-url-reputation.php

 
Thanks,
 
Daniel ;)

I had to use the website citibus.fr, although webroot warned me it was a 'suspicious' site. Now I'm wondering what malware I might have picked up. Is there any way of finding out why webroot warns against this site?

Hello johnmcd45,
 
Welcome to the Webroot Community,
 
This is what I come up with when using the BrightCloud http://www.brightcloud.com/tools/url-ip-lookup.php
 


 
So I am not sure what Malware if any if you continued to that site. ? can you advise.
 
If Webroot hasn't detected Malware you should be ok. Are you experiencing any popups or unusual activity on your computer?
