Just in the last couple of days, each time I open Firefox a NOD32 a Pop up occurs saying that the following

3/02/2014 11:41:21 a.m. secure-nz.imrworldwide.com Blocked by Anti-Phishing blacklist C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe Brian-PC\Brian site has been blocked:

Question: What does this mean and how can I stop it occurring? I tried another browser and NOD 32 pops up the same message. Thanks

1366734 2014-02-02 23:23:00 I'm getting something similar too. On Trade Me and Stuff. Hmmmmm Renegade (16270)
1366735 2014-02-02 23:39:00 Just rang Eset to confirm, and was told, there are several websites including The Herald, Trademe, Stuff and several more all have an advert that has phishing properties running, they are all linked to the address as Renegade posted. Been hit myself this morning ( nod blocked) but didn't think much of it till I started getting calls relating to the problem.

The antivirus software is doing its job by blocking them, and the sites need to take down the adverts.

1366736 2014-02-03 00:21:00 Thanks for that Wainui.....I guess from what you are saying it will be resolved in due course and in the meantime there is nothing to worry about. FYI this behaviour first occurred (with me) on 2/02/02 smurf (6545)

FYI this behaviour first occurred (with me) on 2/02/02 YEP :thumbs: The guy at Eset said they have had MANY calls relating to this.

Its the Websites putting in phisihing type activity ads.

1366738 2014-02-03 01:00:00 I tried it, didn't get a NOD message, got a blank page - but that must be the ad-blocking doing it's thing.

1366739 2014-02-03 03:05:00 this sort of thing happens on quite a regular basis. sites will have advertisements set through a 3rd party, and then that 3rd party starts running a funky ad, and all those sites get affected by it. It's a bit unusual for it to be one that nod's already blocking, but then again maybe they're just being supremely onto it today. 8ftmetalhaed (14526)
