Any idea what would trigger this notification to pop up?

"SUSPICIOUS WEBSITE

This might be a phishing website.

Phishing websites impersonate trustworthy websites for the purpose of obtaining your perosnal or financial information.

Microsoft recommentd that you do not give any of your informatio to such websites.

Report whether or not htis is a phishing website."

I just loaded this page up after adding the google analytics and paypal purchase codes.

When I logged on to the site from my laptop I got this security warning.

Don't think it would go to well for my ROI when the ads start running if I don't get this fixed

  • So far it's an IE 7 and 8 problem.

    Seems to be working fine in 6, firefox and chrome.

    Got a direct number for MS for IE tech. support and will be calling shortly.

    I will keep this thread posted with the results as to what triggered the phishing filter.

    • AHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

      Now I have first hand experience and have a legitimate gripe with MS!

      So far I have been to WA. Canada, India and now who knows where..........

      Every single one of them wants to tell me how to fix it on my local machine.

      Let me know if anyone is interested in the solution when I find it.

      If not, I can stop having this conversation with myself!


      Off to another department in who knows what country.

  • You could start by telling us what the actual web site is that's causing this issue for you in IE7 and 8, as clearly there's some code / web form etc. within the site that's triggering IE's Phishing Filter.
  • Check the code on your site - make sure an iframe hasn't been added by a virus.
  • Banned
    Okay, here's some help from India

    Go to PhishTank.com, it is a database of websites reported as potential phishers and vote yours one out. FireFox uses it as the phishing database though I'm not sure of MSIE

    On another note, you could send me the link to the site/page and I could look into it.
