MBuchart Posted February 8 ID:1616418 Share Posted February 8 I am a longtime (10 years) customer of KINMAN GUITAR ELECTRONICS, an Australian company that manufactures top-line guitar pickups in the Philippines. Kinman’s website is at www.kinman.com. For days now I have been unable to sign into Kinman’s website because of Malwarebytes, which is installed on my office’s server at www.jerchlaw.com. I have e-mailed my regular contact at Kinman and he has explained that their server has been wrongly blocked by some malware services. Kinman employs three different systems to defend against malware and have assured me that their website is safe. My contact explained that there was an episode several weeks ago when one of their software programs mistakenly deleted their security certificate. After chewing out their IT providers for such a dumb, costly mistake, Kinman’s IT people have confirmed that the security certificate has been restored and all is alright now. Well, it’s evidently not alright now because I still can’t order from Kinman’s website. Please investigate, confirm that www.kinman.com is not compromised, and unblock the site so that customers like me can place their orders. I thank you for your attention.

MBuchart Posted February 9 Author ID:1616618 Share Posted February 9 I understand that our IT company Octopi (also in Winnipeg Canada) has also written you. The good news it that www.kinman.com is accessible again. Thank you. However, Malwarebytes is still blocking part of Kinman’s website www.mobile.kinman.com.

Malwarebytes is currently blocking the entire site. Old topics like this are not followed any longer. I will have @TeMerc recheck the site, Log for staff. https://www.virustotal.com/gui/domain/kinman.com/detection Category: Phishing Domain: kinman.com IP Address: 45.60.22.216 Port: 443 Type: Outbound File: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application\msedge.exe Edited April 10 by Porthos Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MBuchart Posted April 10 Author ID:1629185 Share Posted April 10 All old hits. How long before kinman.com gets cleared if no recent problems? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
