I realize that... I should have finished my thought. The pop-up is really annoying... especially if your a developer and working on a WordPress site. Anytime I copy from a page, I get this message.. My thought was to use the icon as the alert... if there's a warning, click on the red icon to see what the issue is. Again, just a thought but the pop-ups are not a great solution...

Couldn't agree more. Maybe a browser extension icon that would turn red if there was an issue? Just a thought...

Just updated. Alert message seems to have disappeared.

Yep, same here. If I exit DropBox, the alert messages stop showing up.

I think I'm good to go... I just need to move my email to a better protected solution. I appreciate your help!

Okay, thanks for checking into this. I appreciate it.

Maurice, attached are the two files requested.. Thank you! Addition.txt FRST.txt

Maurice, Attached are both files. I should mention that at about 9:30 am I added the suspect domain to the Web Exclusions list because I can't retrieve email unless I do so. For this reason, you'll see it disappear from the application log file at 9:33 am. But then I start to get Inbound errors instead. Let me know what you think.... and thank you for your help on this!

Maurice, thank you so much for your input. The issue I have comes up when I use the Outlook app to retrieve email. BUT I do also get the Malicious Website Protection prompt message if I try to hit that same email server via a browser. In essence I get this warning outbound via outlook.exe, and inbound via svchost.exe from the same shared server. I contacted my web hosting provider and they said that this happens if the email client is not setup correctly. I told them that I haven't changed a thing in overall year or so, but they insisted that there was a configuration issue on my side. They want me to set up my email so that it uses imap instead of pop. I'm a little suspicious about their suggestion.

I just started receiving Malicious Website Protection alerts when I try to retrieve email from my email accounts that are hosted on a shared hosting plan (shared IP on Hostgator). I do not receive an alert if I visit these websites directly, via a web browser. I only receive these alerts when I retrieve email via Outlook. A couple of questions: 1) Why would I receive this alert only when retrieving email? 2) Would this be considered a False-Positive, and should I report it as such? Thank You!
