Malwarebytes blocked xxx.xx but did not say anything...

[FetzBox22]

if i visit 

vlc.de

with Firefox,

uBlock blocked it - i allowed it ...

Browser Guard blocked it - i allowed it ...

and then Firefox showed me: Fehlercode: SSL_ERROR_RX_RECORD_TOO_LONG (this connection is not safe)

Malwarebytes shows me in the Notification Section that something happend... but does not show me anything in Firefox.

 

If I use Chrome with no extensions installed, the "same" happens: ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR

There is no Browser, or anything else in play mode.

 

solution:

if i turn of "Informational pop ups in windows notification area" than - Firefox and Chrome show me that Malwarebytes is blocking vlc.de

 

Is this the way you want it?

 

by the way, there was no "website blocked" pop up from Malwarebytes

right now, Malwarebytes itself does not block

vlc.de

anymore... ???

As for the "Website blocked" notification not showing up, that was already fixed internally, and will be available with an upcoming update.

As for why vlc.de was blocked, I'll let someone else answer that, as I do not have an answer for that. My best guess, is that vlc.de has an invalid SSL certificate.

after a reboot Malwarebytes blocks it again.

Last night I did a clean install and maybe something went wrong...?

To block vlc.de is ok, because if you download vlc here you will get Adware or something like that.

Ok thought so, so then your issue was that you weren't getting a "Blocked" notification, correct?

yes

(in the Browser, and no pop up)
