Weird webblock issue with ff
Not sure where the heck to put this... I just had a weird issue with firefox, well waterfox, and a site, www.mamma.com, which has been around for years and years, and I use it for my home page. I just hit it, and apparently google reported it as an attack site, which is rubbish. I've contacted firefox, and they just say "google did it". How do I contact google support and ask what the hell is going on?

No, Mamma has been around for years, not a pop up site or anything, I've never had this issue with it before. It's just a meta-search engine.
Edit: someone is messing with it... I have to do something about it. Edit2: and it's only saying that because google is reporting it. Edit3: dam chrome wants me to shut down ff to import... bbiab

Yeah, no, someone has initiated an attack of some kind on it. Mamma is very low budget, and probably can't deal with this. It's a very good simple meta-search engine, and always works. No one seems to know what's going on. I just installed chrome, and it blocks it too. I used mamma as my home page for years now, this sucks.

Google Safebrowsing has been part of Chrome and FF for a while.
VirusTotal shows that site as Malicious only for Google Safebrowsing... must have caught something on that site and not necessarily that site's fault. Could be a Drive-By hit on the site. Disable Google safebrowsing (do this at your own risk); at least it would be a temporary fix, 'til it gets sorted. How to disable Google Safe Browsing EDIT: Does FireFox(Waterfox) have a tool, extension or a setting to allow you to add that site as an exception. |

Yeah, definitely a drive by. Mamma still exists in other forms: http://mamma.intelius.com/ , so only part of it got flagged.
Edit: and yes, I can still allow it in waterfox. Edit2: and endpoint doesn't go off!

They got hit by popunder.
You can run the google safebrowsing diagnostic for them by using this in your browser: http://www.google.com/safebrowsing/d...site=mamma.com And, you can click on the links in that page to see diagnostics on the linked sites. And, you can check other sites by changing the site=xxxxxxxxx.xxx |

Apparently all is well again. Both wf and chrome no longer block it. And darn whoever mentioned chrome... it's a pretty quick little browser. Just too bad it's not 64 bit yet. Tried the beta 64bit opera build, but it won't import my wf bookmarks like chrome will....
