Firefox says EN World is an attack site?

[drothgery]

Got warnings in the latest FF/Win. In the IE9 Beta (absolutely no toolbars installed), it looks fine.

Thank you guys for the extra data and heads up.

I'll also email Ed Healy, just on the offchance it's an ad that's doing it.

Looks like ENWorld.org got on the StopBadware list. It's now propagating through all the systems that use StopBaware.

Firefox and Google partner with StopBadware, so that's probably why Firefox and Chrome are showing the error. Not sure if IE uses the service, so it might work in the mean time, without having to create any loophole.

A review will need to be requested to get the site off the blacklist. Details are here: StopBadware - Request a Review

I'm unable to get on to the site from Firefox as well, but IE works fine. Both fully up to date. I'm running various anti-spyware and anti-virus tools to see if I've actually picked up anything from the site.

I'm getting zero results for this domain when searching that list. How can you tell it's that list which is causing it?

IE's working fine for me. People always want to trash teh IE, and yet, here we are.

I love IE, it's the best.

I'm not getting anything either, but:

"Note that if a site was recently identified as badware, it might take up to a few hours to appear in our Clearinghouse. Please check back a bit later."

you know, that may indicate that the security settings may not be as good as Fire fox and chrome.

Safari has been also reporting the message. Safari uses a Google service for identifying bad websites.
