RE: [SurroundSound] Re: Malware alert?

It sounds like the IE warning message was displayed when visiting a lot of websites. A local sporting goods retailer experienced this and had to send out an email to everyone explaining the situation and reassuring them that their website was safe.

 

Microsoft has released the following statement regarding the situation yesterday:

"The SmartScreen Filter was unintentionally blocking a group of websites earlier today. The issue has been resolved and we apologize to the customers and sites that were affected. We understand the root cause and have taken preventive action. We take security seriously and are committed to delivering a trusted browsing experience."

Hmm, I think the warnings weren't because of IE itself, rather the

result of that somebody reported the page to Microsoft. Anyway, now

it's gone.
