Trend Micro blocking donationcoder.com???
« on: September 03, 2010, 12:10 PM »
Hi

I just got this today on my work PC which has a remote "Trend Micro" security module...

Quote
Client/Server Security Agent


Page Blocked


URL: http://www.donationcoder.com/
Rating: Dangerous

Threat details:


Verified fraudulent page or threat source.

I already submitted a report to Trend Micro, and thankfully my config allows me to "allow locally" for links I want to get to, but isnt this strange?
This beats false positives in some of the software...

Yes, good stuff there. Active scanning with engines also make this site look ok http://vscan.urlvoid.com/analysis/f3409cd6cd255e14522ab5d5f15128ec/ZG9uYXRpb25jb2Rlci1jb20=/ Found it at Ghacks http://www.ghacks.net/2010/06/09/website-virus-checker-urlvoid/

Trend Micro will be sending flowers and apologies I am sure :)

According to this link, it is being classified as malicious: http://reclassify.url.trendmicro.com/onlinequery.aspx

Unfortunately, you can't submit feedback and request a reclassification unless you are one of their customers with one of their security products.

But they have a forum thread where a Trend Micro employee volunteers to manually submit reclassification requests after checking your site (in his spare time), without you having to pay for one of their products first.

I did submit feedback right away, but no idea how fast things like that get handled. It is also a new phenomemon, been on the site from this computer many times before :)

But the forum seems to get reasonable response, so i supposed paid customer report will too - even though it's the company that pays.

I do get a lot of warning on software download links with trend micro
