lmacri Posted March 5, 2021 ID:1442789 Share Posted March 5, 2021 Is this a false positive? Malwarebytes Browser Guard for Firefox v2.2.20 began blocking the Windows VistaForums site today (05-Mar-2021) at https://www.vistax64.com ("Website blocked due to trojan"). There were no warnings when I visited this site earlier this week. -------------64-bit Win 10 Pro v2004 build 19041.804 * Windows Defender v4.18.2101.9 * Firefox 86.0 * Malwarebytes Browser Guard for Firefox v2.2.20 Dell Inspiron 15 5584, Intel i5-8265U CPU, 8 GB RAM, Toshiba KBG40ZNS256G 256 GB NVMe SSD, Intel UHD Graphics 620 Link to post

alvarnell Posted March 8, 2021 ID:1443162 Share Posted March 8, 2021 Since it's still the weekend, it will probably have to wait until at least tomorrow, but it usually takes less than one business day to resolve. Link to post
lmacri Posted March 8, 2021 Author ID:1443250 Share Posted March 8, 2021 According to Dashke's latest post today in False Positive - 104.26.6.173 the block for www.vistax64.com has been removed for Web Protection in Malwarebytes Premium, but I'm still getting a block ("Website blocked due to trojan") with Malwarebytes Browser Guard for Firefox v2.2.20. -------------64-bit Win 10 Pro v2004 build 19041.804 * Windows Defender v4.18.2101.9 * Firefox 86.0 * Malwarebytes Browser Guard for Firefox v2.2.20 Dell Inspiron 15 5584, Intel i5-8265U CPU, 8 GB RAM, Toshiba KBG40ZNS256G 256 GB NVMe SSD, Intel UHD Graphics 620 Link to post
lmacri Posted March 8, 2021 Author ID:1443254 Share Posted March 8, 2021 Further to my previous post, I am now able to browse to www.vistax64.com without seeing a block by Malwarebytes Browser Guard for Firefox v2.2.20. The problem appears to be solved. Thanks. -------------64-bit Win 10 Pro v2004 build 19041.804 * Windows Defender v4.18.2101.9 * Firefox 86.0 * Malwarebytes Browser Guard for Firefox v2.2.20 Dell Inspiron 15 5584, Intel i5-8265U CPU, 8 GB RAM, Toshiba KBG40ZNS256G 256 GB NVMe SSD, Intel UHD Graphics 620 Link to post
