I cannot use my go-to speedtest site (speedtest.net) as I continually receive alerts stating that the site is host to a trojan. Please resolve this issue.

 

Thanks.

Could you post a log showing the alert?

I just tried yours and it was blocked but the main speedtest.net site is not.

Of course.

Also, a note: I receive the same type of issue when using Windows' ping command to manually ping the 'offending' site.

It is the weekend and staff are few and far between so it might take until Monday to get fixed.

It's not a major issue, considering it's easy enough to work around. Thanks for taking a look into it.

Also, as I've never used the Malwarebytes forums before, I don't have a good grasp of its features; you may have noticed I used the "page" feature (it isn't what I thought it is). I also am unaware of an ability to edit my original post(s). I figure that either the edit feature is either missing or I haven't posted enough times or for a long-enough amount of time. Am I able to edit my posts? If the answer is simple enough, I'd appreciate an answer (if you know and wouldn't mind), else I'll take a look at the FAQ or some such section (if it exists).

Thanks, again.

Thanks for reporting it, the block was added because of this file -

frontiernet.net/~osborne3/speedtest.htm

Since the malicious mwola[.]com domain is dead now, the block will be removed.

Also, there should be an Edit button beneath your post.

New users do not have the ability to edit posts due to abuse.

To both of you, Dashke and Porthos, thanks for helping with my issues; much appreciated.

Ah, you are right Porthos, I haven't noticed the post count. 

You are always welcome Hypnoticbob!
