Selur's Little Message Board

McAfee is blocking Selur.de website saying it has a dangerous virus on it.

Selur please take a look and sort this out as soon as possible.

The forum is fine no threats it only seems to be the main website selur.de

I'm posting a screenshot attachment[
[attachment=2715]Please, read the 'Infos needed to fix&reproduce bugs,..'-sticky before you post about a problem.

If you want to access https://selur.de while having McAfee WebAdvisor running, contact McAfee.
Last I checked (https://www.mcafee.com/support/s/article/000001921), https://www.mcafee.com/en-us/consumer-su...sting.html only
worked when you were a registered user.
Not a McAfee user, nothing I can do.
My advice: don't use McAfee.

Is it a false positive
Or has someone infected the site?
What antivirus do you use?
Can you not tell McAfee to sort this out?

The site hasn't changed since the last release in June.
There is no virus or similar, it's just McAfee reporting a false positive
You can copy any of the available files&co via link into https://www.virustotal.com to check yourself.

Quote: What antivirus do you use?

On Windows, I use MalwareBytes and Windows Defender.
On Linux, I don't use an antivirus scanner.
On Mac, I used MalwareBytes. (back when I had one)
Site note: I got an old lifetime license, from when the company started, and before they switched to monthly subscriptions.
That said, I would still recommend MalwareBytes even with the subscription model.

Did you not read, my last post?
They don't offer such an option as far as I can see for non-customers.

Malwarebytes is good they have a yearly charge.
I' didn't know they  did a life time option It's always renew every year for a fixed amount for most antivirus, now they all have forced auto renewal

Windows defender is not that good lots of people are saying good things about bitdefender it's the leader in antivirus software these days.

I think I will have to ask McAfee what is going on

btw:
i'd take a a wild guess and say you got the warning because you chose http:// instead of https://
