This site could have harmed your computer
« on: June 20, 2017, 03:23:55 AM »
Thanks for getting me out of there, but there is nothing wrong with this site, AFAIK.  My client is trying to log into her remote computer thru a link, but she always gets that same popup that prevents her from doing anything else. She is able to get in with Opera, but Firefox always hits that error.  I have done some looking around these forums, and it seems like its related to a domain being blocked on a blacklist somewhere.  Not sure where, or how to get the name removed, so I am hoping for some help here.  Thanks in advance!

If it was blacklisted, the message would also appear when using Opera.

Does she has AOS installed on FF and not on Opera ?

Thanks for the link.  I reported it.  The Avast plugin did not get installed in Opera for some reason, but it is installed in Safari.  Any other suggestions?

Remove AOS from FireFox and let her try again.
