Does your antivirus still flag BLF as malware?

[JohnnyMac]

I don't. I used to before the site was switched to ".com" but not any longer. TrendMicro.

[fran82]

No. I use NortonAntivirus (yes, I know, NAV is not good), but it does not recognize BLF as a virus

@Vectrex

Would it be possible to search and replace all ". cc . cz" entries (text and links) in the BLF datase through ".com"? Or is that too difficult and dangerous?

Actually I just did that. :) But I'm not sure if that will help.

Could anyone please post a link to the page that gives you the warning?

Thanks!

[Vectrex]

Give it some time they don't scan all internet pages daily...

[agedbriar]

No warnings with Avira Antivir installed.

I'm not getting an alert from Malewarebytes with that link

I'm not either, but it has a link to ".cc .cz", which Mr. Admin said was just changed to ".com"

Avast didn't like the following thread a few minutes ago: (but it seems to be fine now?)

Never seen one with Sophos - but I am running Macs and there isn't all that much out there in the wild that can mess them up.

Most web blocking/filtering software is pretty useless - a pal of mine who teaches IT in a high school can come up with a list of several hundred new porn sites most weeks that the kids have discovered. And which aren't blocked already. Since the newest malware seems to end up on the free porn sites first....

At least one of my customers with a 6 hours a day porn habit seems to get stuff that nobody else ever does. Or gets them weeks before anyone else does. Tried locking his machine down but then he turns it all off (or manages to break it) as he can't get to see the stuff he wants.

No problems so far with McAfee Web Gateway or WebSense.

[BILL_G]

I went to the Link from Post #13 5 times + got a Alert from Avast each time.

[raccoon]

That web page I mentioned (https://budgetlightforum.com/t/-/530) is still infected according to Avast, but not every time I access it.

Here's some details about the infection from Avast.

Pr0n addicts need Macs, end of story.

This is why I own 3 macs. I'm a porn addict, and I'm in need of serious help!!!!! .........to find better porn sites!!!!!

Only three?

I have a few more than that. Around 25 of them last time I went through the attic. About 23 of them still work - or still worked the last time I bothered to power them up.

And the others including the world's loudest Sun server. That thing has fans on its fans. I can't hear the vacuum cleaner when it's on. Come to that I can't hear a chainsaw with a rusted out muffler when the server is running.

Exactly none.

True.
