Chrome app is blocked by security alert

When I open Chrome on my iphone 5c it is blocked by a "security alert".  How do I remove?

Try and reset safari. You've gotten a plugin that is blocking access to other web browsers.
Safari 7 (Mavericks): Reset Safari
Also, when the affliction is removed, install Adblock Plus, (be sure to enable the Malware & Tracker blocking) it will reduce the chances of this kind of thing from happening again.
On an iPhone?

  • Even though in my Mac Book settings pop up blocker is on, i am getting lot of pop ups and security alerts from mackeepar on every click i do on the screen. how can i clear that issue?

    i have a mac book 13" 0f 2010, when ever i click on the screen a pop up of google survey, lottery or security alert of mac keeper pops up. i have pop up blocker on in the settings. how to clear is issue. is that a security threat to my system? please help.

    One of the most common pieces of adware that causes MacKeeper pop-ups is Downlite, and if Mark is infected with that, it will prevent him from loading the AdwareMedic website. If that happens, see:

  • Reader X - Getting Security Alert with a data filled PDF form

    My site uses PDF forms that have their data filled in dynamically by the classic asp code on the site. Before Reader X version, they were filled and displayed without a problem. With Reader X they display the security warning: "Data from this site is blocked to avoid potential security risks....." and the Options button to trust the site. I get this even thoguh it's the same site they are on already and I'm using an SSL cert for all files and I'm also using a direct link to generate the PDF.
    I know the user can just click the options and make the problem go away but many users seem unable to read and or panic when they see the alert.
    Is there a security setting or trust setting I can add or set in my form so that I will not get this security alert??

    No, apart from creating a certified document, but the user would still have to add you as a trusted source. If a document could override this, it would be rather pointless to have it in the first place.

  • Safari is frozen by a fake security alert, how do I resolve?

    Safari is frozen by a fake security alert.  How do I resolve on my MacBook Air using IOS 8.1.2 
    Error Message:
    "Safari - Alert
    Your Browser has been Locked because of Possible Infections found in your Machine. Due to which your Browser Might be Corrupted because of Suspicious Activity found.
    Major Security Issue
    For Immediate Assistance through our Apple Certified Technicians CALL:
    +1-855-337-8048 (Toll Free)"
    Thank you!

    The following comes from user stevejobsfan0123.
    Occasionally, a browser window may pop up with a scam message. Common pop-ups include a message saying the government has seized your computer and you must pay to have it released (often called "Moneypak"), or a phony message saying that your computer has been infected, and you need to call a tech support number (sometimes claiming to be Apple) to get it resolved. First, understand that these pop-ups are not caused by a virus, and your computer has not been affected. This "hijack" is limited to your web browser. Also understand that these messages are scams, so do not pay any money, call the listed number, or provide any personal information. Most of these scammers, if you actually call the number, will ask you to install software giving them remote control over your computer. Do not do this either. This article will outline the solution to dismiss the pop-up.
    Quit Safari
    Though you will probably have to quit Safari, you can first try closing the tab by pressing Command + W. Sometimes, however, these pop-ups will not go away by attempting to close the tab, nor by clicking "OK" or "Cancel." Furthermore, several menus in the menu bar may become disabled and show in gray, including the option to quit Safari. You will likely have to force quit Safari. To do this, press Command + option + esc, select Safari, and press Force Quit.
    Relaunch Safari
    If you relaunch Safari, the page will reopen. To prevent this from happening, hold down the 'Shift' key while opening Safari. This will prevent windows from the last time Safari was running from reopening.
    This will not work in all cases. The shift key must be held at the right time, and in some cases, even if done correctly, the window reappears. In these circumstances, after force quitting Safari, turn off Wi-Fi or disconnect Ethernet, depending on how you connect to the Internet. Then relaunch Safari normally. It will try to reload the malicious webpage, but without a connection, it won't be able to. Navigate away from that page by entering a different URL, i.e. www.apple.com, and trying to load it. Now you can reconnect to the Internet, and the page you entered will appear rather than the malicious one.
    None of this Worked!
    If pressing Command + W does not work, and force quitting Safari and restarting the application with the Shift key held down does not get rid of the pop-up you will have to reset Safari. Normally, this can be done by launching Safari, then in the menu bar, going to Safari > Reset Safari. However, most pop-ups of this variety will block access to many of the drop-down menus in the menu bar. You will need to locate a file on the computer and move it to the trash. Make sure you quit Safari first (force quit if necessary).
    To start, open Finder. The press Command + Shift + G, or in the menu bar, select Go > Go to Folder. Type the following file path:
    ~/Library/Preferences
    Look for a file named com.apple.Safari.plist, and drag it to the trash. Then restart your Mac. After it reboots, try launching Safari. A new preferences file should have been automatically created, so no more action is required on your part, and the pop-up should now be gone.
    The Source of the Scam
    In addition to the FBI scam, there are a few webpages with bogus technical support pop-ups or "security alerts," claiming you have a virus as described earlier. These webpages include but are not limited to:
    macsecurityissue.com
    helpmetek.com
    applesecurityalert.com
    websternal.net

  • I have a ransomware virus on chrome browser that blocks use of browser  How do I remove this virus.  I scan with norton and shows no virus

    I have a ransomware virus on chrome browser the blocks use of browser  How do I disable virus?

    It's likely the "FBI Moneypak browser hijack" which works by hijacking Javascript in the web browser so you can't escapte.
    What you do is press command tab to get to the Finder, then from the Apple Menu select > Force Quit on Chrome.
    Apple menu > System Preferences > General >
    Uncheck “Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps“
    Apple Menu select > Shutdown, restart and don't start up Chrome.
    Use Safari to find out how to disable loading of previous web pages in Chrome ( I don't use it )
    Once Chrome loads, then Reset it's caches etc.
    If you know the domain name of the malicious site, then feed it here

  • Disable IE 10 & 11 Security Alert popup w/ Group Policy

    We get a Security Alert popup when accessing a https site
    "You are abut to view pages over a secure connection....."
    With previous version of IE, user can simply check box for "In the future, do not show this warning" and it will not pop up again, however, w/ the new IE 10 and IE 11, it keeps coming back.  What is the group policy rule to disable this pop
    up?
    Thanks in advance.
    Roget Luo

    Hi Roget,
    It seems that we can enable the following setting to block the warning message:
    Computer Configuration/User Configuration > Adminstrative Templates > Windows Components > Internet Explorer >Turn off the Security
    Settings Check feature
    Besides, apart from group policy, if we just want to individually block the message, the following article can be referred to for more information.

  • HT1688 Is there any App for blocking the International calls on my phone?

    Is there any App for blocking the International calls on my phone?

    No.
    For security reasons, 3rd party apps don't have access to private iPhone APIs which such an app would require.
    You want to stop being able to place such calls or stop receiving such calls?
    If the latter, try stopping it at the source by contacting your carrier.

  • Windows Security Alert - "Java Platform SE binary"

    After I updated to Adobe Acrobat 9.3.2, Windows Security Alert shows to block "Java Platform SE binary". Is it vulnarable to virus/adware? Do I need to block or unblock it?  http://community.ca.com/blogs/securityadvisor/archive/2009/02/24/attackers-love-zero-day.a spx suggests to uncheck Enable Acrobat JavaScript.

    I think these are two completely unrelated events - your update to 9.3.2 and the security alert.

    Yup, dito to ckuan's response - Contact your carrier or assign a silent ringtone/message tone to the contact so you will not be alerted at all to the calls/messages.

  • Is possible to sign a Captive runtime bundle executable in mac with a mac distribution using codesign (to avoid security Alert)

    Hi, again:
    Is possible to sign a Captive runtime executable (.app) in mac with a mac distribution certificate using codesign (to avoid security Alert)?
    Considering that Flash Builder does not allow you to create an unsigned .app (captive).
    Basically, apparently is imposible to do it, when I try codesign always return a: part of the bundle is sealed.
    Please anyone there can help me to solve this?
    Thank you.

  • Trying to download Adobe Master Suite trial version and windows security alert

    I am trying to download a trial version of adobe master suite but when I sigin in with my adobe ID a security alert pops up saying " Windowes security alert revocation informaiton for this certificate is not available, do you want to proceed?"
    I press yes but notihng happens it keeps popping up.
    My computer sits behind a firewall and proxy.  It may be useful to know if your install process accesses any TCP or UDP ports other than 80 and 443?
    Also if there is a solution for iths.
    Thanks

    Nothing to do with Adobe. Talk to your IT department and how they handle certificates and local security in your intranet. The default port for any HTTP communication is 8080, so yes, if it's globally blocked/ rewired, then there may be issues with downloads. In any case, this is nothing anyone around here can resolve for you.

  • Insecure JNLP java_vm_args cannot avoid security alerts even with a signed JNLP

    I am using a signed JNLP launch file that is validated against JNLP-INF/APPLICATION_TEMPLATE.JNLP in my main resource JAR (which I know works because if I change the JNLP in an invalid way the Java Plugin JNLP Client complains as expected). The main resource JAR is also properly signed with a real code signing certificate, marked as a Trusted-Library in the Manifest, and has "all-permissions" in the JNLP.
    In my JNLP launch file, I have some java_vm_args that are considered insecure. For example, --XX:+PrintGC. Despite the fact that the JNLP is signed, I get two security alerts:
    1) A yellow exclamation mark alert which when More Information are examined asserts that the JNLP file is NOT signed.
    2) If I accept and run anyway, then I get another alert saying:
    "This application is going to perform an insecure operation. Do you want to continue?"
    Is there any way to avoid these issues while still being able to specify arbitrary VM arguments for the applet?

    Found the answer in your link.  :-)
    If the Application-Library-Allowable-Codebase attribute is present and matches the location from which the RIA is started, then a single host is listed in the Location field for the prompt and the option to hide future prompts is provided. If this attribute is present and the files are accessed from a location not included for the attribute, then the RIA is blocked. If this attribute is not present, then multiple hosts that correspond to the locations of the JAR file and the JNLP file or HTML page are listed in the Location field for the prompt. When multiple hosts are shown, the user is not given the option to hide future prompts. Use of this attribute is recommended so the files for the RIA are accessed only from known locations.

  • AT&T netbios security alert: port 922

    Wondering how to address this AT&T security alert:
    AT&T has received information indicating that one or more devices using your Internet connection may have NetBIOS services exposed to the Internet.This usually means that the firewall on your router, wireless router, or computer is disabled or misconfigured. The IP address 162.234.253.XX was observed responding to NetBIOS requests on port 922/udp on Aug 5, 2014 at 11:57 PM EDT. Our records indicate that this IP address was assigned to you at this time. More details appear below.
    For security and privacy reasons, NetBIOS services should not be made available from the public Internet. They can be used to gain information about your computers, and can also be used by malicious actors to perform denial of service attacks. Please ensure that the firewall is enabled on your router or computer, and that inbound and outbound traffic on the affected ports are blocked (135/udp through 138/udp, 445/udp, and 139/tcp for Microsoft Windows; see details below for additional ports that may need to be blocked).
    Time capsule connected to AT&T router: Motorola NVG510
    What are your ideas?

    There is a thread here about it already. It might be worth a read.
    Time Capsule respond to NetBOIS request port 922
    The issues does not seem to be the Apple routers on the network. Certainly no NetBios on port 922 is open.
    ATT support needs to do more work on its own equipment it seems.
