UCD AFC Football team website blocked for 'Trojan'

[bigfootiefan76]

Theres no reason for this site to host any 'trojans' in fact I've not seen anything on it that even attempts to get the user to download anything, it is on a server hosted by a reputable company and referenced from the offical university page, the url is: ucdsoccer.com

Also Virustotal is clear, I don't own the site but I follow the club and I've been on the site plenty of times before installing malwarebytes so we can maybe fix the problem and give me some peace of mind

Cheers for that, just to confirm you believe the site is completely clear (theres no reason it shouldn't be just so I can tell my friend who runs the club that everythings ok and he's got nothing to worry about)

Hello @bigfootiefan76:

Because the ucdsoccer.com website is considered seriously outdated by many, you might consider passing to your friend that the website administrator schedule more frequent website security audits and act based on their results:

I will let them know, that site has always been a bit of a piece of junk but if its a potential security risk in the future I'll stress the importance of it, just to clarify I shouldn't be worried about Malware or the like from the website right?

MB staff have found it clean at this time and have removed the block.

Hello @bigfootiefan76:

Due to the ongoing and reported remarkably elevated security shortcomings of that website, coupled with the site's embedded hotlinks to the websites of others beyond your control, plus any thoroughly unqualified assurances any may have implied, any such so-called assurances you seek and imagine from my posts would be null and void before they were read.

Good luck and cheers.
