Applications :: Safari 4: Suspected Malware Site Warning

Mar 10, 2009

Not sure if this has been reported; a quick search of the forums didn't pop anything.

Safari 4 seems to provide a warning when Google has tagged a website with potential Malware. I don't know if this Malware is Mac or PC but thought it was interesting. I've attached a screenshot to see what I mean.

OS X :: Suspected Malware Warning Messages - How To Avoid It

Sep 9, 2010

I just downloaded Safari Version 5.0.1 (5533.17.8) and now when I try to visit a trusted work site I am blocked by a suspected malware warning. If I click ignore and then try to re-open the site the malware warning returns. If I use firefox I am able to log in without a problem. Any way to get rid of this warning?

Applications :: Safari Malware Warning - Xtorrent Blog

Aug 16, 2010

Both Google results and Safari warn that contains malicious software. Does the warning dialog appear for you too?

Google Safe Browsing Diagnostics reveals this: http://www.google.com/safebrowsing/d...erss.com/blog/ which leads me to believe that third-party advertisers may be responsible for this. The developer David Watanabe is very well respected which is why this warning came as surprise.

Curiosity got the better of me and I browsed at my own risk, now I am extremely paranoid. Here's hoping it's one of those 'Windows things'.

OS X :: Malware Warning Only On Safari, Wants To Remove!

Jan 9, 2009

Has anyone figured out how to remove the Malware warning from google? My website www.ianiswas.com has been affected by this, but only when using Safari. I have read a few posts, but they have not been super helpful. I called my host company, they see nothing wrong, I looked at the coding, of which I am not an expert, and found nothing wrong.

OS X :: Getting Malware Warning Popups In Safari 4

Apr 23, 2009

I don't know if anyone can help me with this, but for the past week or so, I've been getting weird popups when going to sites like nytimes.com, macrumors.com, cnet.com, google.com, and other perfectly safe sites that say something along the lines of "This site may harm your computer." And then when I click "Ignore" I get another popup that says are you sure, and I can't get out of the popup, and then I have to quit Safari.

I'm wondering if I have some kind of trojan or something like that. I'll get a screenshot next time it happens.

OS X :: Malware On Mac - Redirected From Link To Another Site

Sep 15, 2010

I'm running OS 10.5.8 and using Firefox 3.5.7. When I Google something and click a result, 75% of the time I am redirected somewhere that was not the destination of the link. Other times I'll click a link and a giant white browser window will open behind current window taking up my whole screen. Another frequent occurrence is being directed to the site "theclickcheck". I have a registered version of MacScan and it comes up with nothing and my software is up to date. Where do I go from here?

OS X :: Malware Detected On Site - Adblock Feature For Security?

Nov 20, 2009

I've had my MacBook for a few months now and totally love this beastie. I run Safari Version 4.0.2 (5530.19) and I don't do a ton of surfing, just a couple of sites that I visit regularly. Is there any kind of spyware that attacks Macs? Do I need to be on top of that? The other day one of the sites I regularly visit got hit by a hacker and my browser said Malware detected and wouldn't go to the site.

Also, I think my wireless router hates my MacBook. It boots me offline with alarming regularity. Tried to upgrade to a so called "better" router but still had the same problem. Its an easy fix (just unplug till it resets) but its a real PITA as the router is in the basement. Is there any router that doesn't do this with Macs or do I just need to suck it up? And finally is there anything I can download that will remove ads on Safari? I love the adblocker feature on Firefox, but don't use Firefox on here.

Applications :: Safari Popup - Windows Virus Warning

Apr 1, 2010

I know Macs don't get viruses. Here's my issue. I'm running OSX 10.6.3 with Safari 4.0.5. About 5-6 times a day, running Safari, I get the message I'm attaching to this post. It's a fake popup -- obviously fake, because it tells me it's "Windows Internet Security," and gives me a virus warning. The Safari screen behind the image is grayed out, so the message isn't a real popup -- it's part of the screen.

Note:

- This occurs on mainstream webpages, including google search results pages, Yahoo, and the Wall Street Journal.

- The only MS products on my computer are Office for Mac apps, which I've had for years w/o problem. They are not running when the problem occurs.

- I can click close on the Safari window (not the red button on the warning) or the back button, and the msg goes away.

- I cannot click on other items on the page when the message is there.

- [edit] Also, I've reset Safari, clearing the cache and the cookies. It's only been happening for about a week, but it happens very frequently now.

Again, I know macs don't get viruses, but does anyone have any helpful suggestions for getting rid of this?

Applications :: To Disable Safari's Warning When Open Downloaded Files?

Sep 18, 2009

I guess it's a change with Snow Leopard, but now when I download a .nzb file and try to open it I get the warning message that it's 'an unknown application downloaded from the Internet' (which, of course, it is not) and I have to manually open that. A .nzb file is not an app, but an executable file (launches NZB Drop, for me). The fact is I don't think I've ever had the message fire and not want to open it. I'd prefer to just disable it all together.

Applications :: Site Not Loading Correctly In Safari?

Apr 13, 2009

Well for all the main sites I visit with safari they load up fine. But one site and only one doesn't display correctly. It shows up fine in firefox but not in safari. I can use the site alright in safari but I would like it if I could make it display correctly. And I really don't feel like switching over to firefox because I prefer using safari. So is there any way I can fix this issue without having to switch browsers every time I visit the site.

Applications :: Disabling Auto Updating Of Safari Top Site Previews

I like the Top Sites feature. However, I don't like that Safari checks if the site has changed since my last visit. It destroys the feature of many forums to just show me the posts which were added since my last visit

Applications :: Safari Address Bar Picking Up Keywords In Site Like Firefox?

Jun 12, 2009

in firefox, if you type two words in the URL bar, it will pickup the site. For example, my firefox will list every url i've been to in order of popularity if type mac - (it will show macrumours, apple, 9to5mac, etc)

if i type mac on safari it will list all url's beginning with the word mac.

How do i get safari to behave like firefox? You can see the benefits of firefox as getting to a url you don't quite remember is easy.

OS X :: Malware Message From Safari On My Website?

Jul 13, 2009

This is my first post, thanks in advance for any help. Hope I can explain correctly. I don't think my site [URL]actually ever had malware. I (not knowing better) placed a small *.exe file on my site via ftp just to transfer it from home to work. Anyway I think it caused me to get listed with google as having malware etc. (even though it was no type of dangerous file). I registered with googles webmaster tools, deleted it off my site and requested they re-scan it. Well that seams to have worked and all is fine except with Safari. I am still getting the malware notice with Safari only. I have cleared history, emptied the cache, deleted cookies and reset safari. Still getting the message. Sometimes I can open the site fine then click home and it pops up again. I really think my site is completely fine but I cant figure out why its still doing this with Safari. Needless to say this is terrible for business.

Safari :: Uninstall Malware Auto-complete Pro?

Mar 18, 2012

I have noticed this little program called auto-complete pro that is now on my computer on Safari.  Anytime I search for something on the internet, the auto-complete bar that is normally there is covered up by a separate one by autocomplete pro. It is a known malware program, that I found in my research, but most people have asked how to get rid of it on Firefox or windows, now Safari. I am running OS X snow leopard, I believe.  I have looked under extensions, there is nothing there.

Safari :: 5.1.7 - Restore Warning Before Closing Window With Multiple Open Tabs?

Jun 16, 2012

Since downloading version 5.1.7, when I click on the red button to close a window, it closes instantly -- even when the window contains numerous open tabs. The prior version always gave me a "Do you really want to close this window? You have X open tabs." message, which I'd like to restore. I looked in Preferences to no avail.

Aug 10, 2009

My family recently received an extra charge on the monthly phone bill, coming from my mother's line. She is sure of not ordering anything extra, so we contacted Verizon and they returned an IP address of where the purchase came from. What exactly can be done about this? I tracked the IP address and have an address of the place (a business).

Mac Pro :: Suspected Hardware - Is It Normal

Aug 19, 2009

I have a Mac Pro 2,1 and have been having some problems with it for some time. At first I suspected file system damage, so I backed up important data, and did an erase and install, and just reinstalled Final Cut Studio, leaving the backup on an external. But I am still getting some of the same problems, one hard drive will take up to 30 minutes to mount, it can't be backed up (carbon copy cloner fails saying either bad filesystem or bad drive, and just copy and pasting fails). Sometimes, using the Find command in Finder will not return any results. I am on Tiger 10.4.11, all the latest patches.
