Ready912 Posted September 12, 2020 ID:1407287 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Hello, I tried visiting Amazon.ca this morning and I get the message from Browser Guard: Website blocked due to trojan Website blocked: www.amazon.ca Malwarebytes Browser Guard blocked this website because it may contain malware activity. We strongly recommend you do not continue. I am getting the same result from Chrome and Firefox where I have Browser Guard installed. I have no problems visiting Amazon.com, and yesterday the .ca site was fine. Any ideas what's going on, and does that mean Amazon.ca's site is compromised? Thanks! Link to post

Ready912 Posted September 12, 2020 Author ID:1407297 Share Posted September 12, 2020 I just finished trying it out on my wife's laptop (running Windows as well) and I was able to load up Amazon.ca's website with both Chrome and Firefox. Went to Amazon's Customer Service link and then Browser Guard kicked in and flagged the site as having a Trojan. Not to long after it was flagged on Chrome as well. Link to post
Molly Posted September 12, 2020 ID:1407300 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Amazon.ca blocked for trojan on PC and Macbook. At first I was able click continue but now I am completely blocked. Link to post
Porthos Posted September 12, 2020 ID:1407305 Share Posted September 12, 2020 It is the weekend. Staff are in short supply and it may take until Monday to address the issue. 1 Link to post
Ready912 Posted September 14, 2020 Author ID:1407530 Share Posted September 14, 2020 Tried today, and seems like everything is fine, but definitely Browser Guard had flagged something from Amazon.ca as malware on Saturday as seen in the spike from the graph. Link to post
Solution gonzo Posted September 14, 2020 Solution ID:1407565 Share Posted September 14, 2020 If it was being reported as a Trojan, all Malwarebytes users would have been affected. Considering that I have read numerous reports of weirdness from Saturday, it sounds like something was happening for a brief period. All good now though! 1 Link to post
