AlanAtABC Posted October 20, 2020 ID:1415313 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Hi, Apologies first of all, I made the website myself using WIX. I know, laugh away... I have no real experience, so I may need a little have holding here. I have been told me a prospective client that he cannot access my site, due to the following issue: Website blocked due to a suspicious top level domain (TLD) A cursory Google makes me think that perhaps my .biz domain is the issue here. Not much I can do about that now... Is there any way I can get my site accessible again, please? Is it likely other security software packages are blocking me as well? Many thanks in advance. Best regards, Alan Link to post

Staff JPopovic Posted October 20, 2020 Staff ID:1415316 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Hello, Could you send us a screenshot which is showing that the website was blocked or a log? Thank you 1 Link to post
Porthos Posted October 20, 2020 ID:1415317 Share Posted October 20, 2020 This is a Browser Guard Block. I will Alert the proper team to investigate. While we wait for staff. A note on Website blocked due to a suspicious top level domain (TLD) Non-standard TLD's (biz/cc/info/xyz/online and so on) are commonly used for malicious purposes. Malwarebytes err on the side of caution to assure that we are protecting our users. If our users encounter a block, they report it (as you did), it gets tested, and if it is determined to be safe, it gets whitelisted. @gonzo 1 Link to post
AlanAtABC Posted October 20, 2020 Author ID:1415318 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Thank you, both. I'm afraid I don't use malwarebytes right now, so I cannot screenshot anything. Besides, I am out on the day job... Link to post
