SharonC Posted January 5, 2011 ID:370148 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Everytime I click on a particular e-mail received from Newegg.com I get the following message: Successfully blocked access to a potentially malicious website: 208.73.210.29. The email is legitimate because I just ordered something from Newegg.com and it refers to my transaction. I only get this message from this particular email.

Firefox Posted January 5, 2011 ID:370319 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Hello and If the email is in HTML format, its like viewing a web-page, and if the email has some advertisement on it, it could be blocking that.Of course this is my best guess....

SharonC Posted January 6, 2011 Author ID:370330 Share Posted January 6, 2011 The IP address 208.73.210.29 belongs to Oversee.net. From what I could find out, Oversee.net has been known to host malware spreaders. Malwarebytes did its job and protected me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
