I upgraded last week to the new and improved Firefox. It has all kinds of bells and whistles. Funny thing about this site. I have received this message 3 times when I open a new tab for a specific thread.

Firefox spits out this pretty little red box with yellow exclamation points:

Reported Attack Site!

This web site at waytotheprofit.com has been reported as an attack site and has been blocked based on your security preferences.

Attack sites try to install programs that steal private information, use your computer to attack others, or damage your system.

Some attack sites intentionally distribute harmful software, but many are compromised without the knowledge or permission of their owners.

Any idea or thoughts on this?

BTW: I have normal settings for security with the browsers I use. I use other security software for machine protection.

The same thing happened to me after installing the Firefox. My settings are also set on the default settings. It really spooked me. I hope someone has something helpful or informative to say about this.

Being that this is a conspiracy site, it got me even more paranoid than I already need to be.

I have been running FireFox 3 for a few weeks now and have never gotten an alert such as the one described.

Not sure where that takes us now though. My settings are also on default.

I installed firefox 3 on my iMac and haven't had any problems or messages like that. Of course I have a firewall and have pop up's blocked and don't accept cookies without my OK and I have it set to delete personal info when I log off so...

... but then windoze systems... well, no further comment.

Buy a mac.

Ive never gotten that popup, or any really. What plugins are you running? I run no script and adblock plus.
