If you're using Norton AV software

[Basil]

I just had a report that a member was being blocked by Norton where Norton was claiming there was malicious software when trying to access specifically this Pub forum. I talked with my data center and they are running a complete scan but they said that strongly suspect that Norton is giving him a false positive. You can see here that the URL for this forum has a clean bill of health:

Malicious URL Scanner | Scan URLs for Malware | Malware URL Checker

URL scanner to detect malicious URLs including malware and phishing campaigns. Scan URLs for malware, viruses, and phishing links. Check URLs in real-time for suspicious links, parked domains, or abuse.

Nevertheless, I'm having a complete AV scan done.

If you use Norton, please let me know at bcfadminbritishcarforum.com if Norton tells you there's a problem. (Just out of curiosity, is anyone here using Norton AV?)

BCF just started connecting from my favorites bar. Maybe Norton got and corrected my report of their false positive.

I hope so - and that Chrome and Edge report about BCF not supporting secure connection is not accurate (just look in your browser address bar and you will see it starts with https not http.
Weird.

And all along I was connecting fine to several other sites I use.

I have never used Norton. Have only ever use windows security essentials and now defender
Never had issues or virus.
Should never use more than on anti virus at the same time

All that above really makes me appreciate linux even more.
