These days, it does not matter if it is a legitmate site or not.

All of them can be infected.

Please give example of sites you had gotten the blocked alert on so that they can be tested.

This has just started happening to me all websites are malicious search engines e.g. Google are coming up
As malicious.
I only visit news websites like the BBC the sun the daily mail and the mirror and these are legitimate sites Is there
A fix coming as I've had to disable it
By the way your website which I went on for help was deemed malicious.
Please update this app as it was the best before this.

Since yesterday around noon, I have been getting those popups from the Network Shield tell me that a malicious site has been blocked (I'm assuming they have been popups from the internet). Anyone know whats going on with this? Or how to deactivate the popups from appearing on my screen at least?
