I keep getting bogus "suspected phishing site" messages....help..

My computer will not let me open articles on msn.com or cnn.com; it also stops me from opening trusted sources like photobucket from friends of mine. This is so aggravating and I don't know how to make it stop.

Check System Prefernces>Security>Firewall. Is the Firewall turned on? If so then check Advanced. Is Block All Incoming Connections checked?

  • Subject/Question: "WARNING: SUSPECTED PHISHING SITE" message has just recently come up for me EVERY time I go to a website on Safari. What do I do?

    This has been happening for me just recently, 12/2012... EVERY TIME I CLICK ON A WEBSITE, I get: WARNING: SUSPECTED PHISHING SITE.
    At first, I thought it was valid, but when I saw that it was doing it before EVERY page, I knew that something was wrong. I read through your comments from the past, but saw no indications of what was causing the problem then or how to fix it.
    I have a macbook 10.5.8, & I use Safari. Never had this problem before.
    Can anyone tell me what I need to do?
    I may have changed a few things in System Preferences... and...
    I have copied & pasted the email addresses from my spam to block in Yahoo mail to see if that makes any difference in the number of spam emails that I get. Probably not, as they are constantly changing email addresses, but thought I would try.
    That is all that I know that I have done.
    And now this is constant & annoying & I don't know what websites that I can trust.
    Please help.
    I haven't use this site much. Will I get an email to let me know if anyone responds? Or do I have to try to come back here to check for replies?
    Thanks again!

    Have you tried the Reset Safari... in the pull down menu under Safari?

  • Burning playlists from my iTunes to CD doesn't work anymore. Keep getting a "medium write error" message.  What does this mean?

    I'm trying to burn playlists onto a cd from itunes.  I keep getting a "medium write error" message.  What does this mean?  I heard that this may mean that I should try burning at a slower speed.  I tried this and that didn't help.  I also heard that I may need to use a different brand of CD-R disc.  I have not tried this yet.  I also heard that it could be a software issue or disc drive issue.  I recently updated my macbook pro software from tiger to snow leapord.  Do you think this could have affected my itunes playlist burning capabilities?  Thanks for the help.

    A system upgrade should not have affected anything. When did you notice the loss in functionality?

    Realize that a MBP that came with Tiger is an old computer and optical drives do not last forever.
    You could try a drive cleaning disc to remove dust.  Don't be overly optimistic. I suspect it is an old drive issue.

  • Keep getting 'Well that's Embarassing" message starting previous session, I do not want to start previous session, I always want new session. Need an option for this.

    Keep getting "Well that's Embarrassing" message starting previous session. I do not want to start previous session. I always want a new session. Need an option to always start a new session.

    Both of the above cited options help ONLY if "sites to be restored" ''are listed''.
    They used to be(when I first switched to Firefox); now they are not(even with the "Oops! This is embarassing..." message from FF where the "Restore Session" option is shown but with nothing IN it, y'see?).
    I've been going through the FAQs &c in the Mozilla Support sites/linx. Lots of interesting things but not quite that for which I search.

    No it's not stealing. They have an allowance that you can share with so many computers/devices. You'll have to authorize her computer to play/use anything bought on your acct. You can do this under the Store menu at top when iTunes is open on her computer.
    As far as getting it all on her computer....I think but I am not sure (because I don't use the feature) but I think if you turn on Home Sharing in iTunes it may copy the music to her computer. I don't know maybe it just streams it. If nothing else you can sign into your acct on her computer and download it all to her computer from the cloud. Not sure exactly how to go about that, I haven't had to do that yet. I wonder if once you authorize her computer and then set it up for automatic downloads (under Edit>Preferences>Store) if everything would download. Sorry I'm not much help on that.

    I have the iPhone 5 and I keep getting a no sim card message. I have had my phone for over a year now so I know I have a sim card. How can I fix this because it doesn't let me get calls now.

    Try resetting the phone. Hold the home and power lock button until the Apple logo appears.If that does not work, turn the phone off and take the SIM out and then put it back in.
    If that still does not work, you may have a defective SIM, in which case you will need a new one from your carrier.

  • I keep getting a not enough space message.

    I just downloaded creative cloud to my laptop. I keep getting a not enough space message. Want to purchase a desktop in order to have more space. Can I use cc on two separate computers?
    AT first I could not download lightroom or photoshop. I deleted all the pictures in my iPhoto folder and was able to. I only added a few select pictures back to iPhoto. Tried moving them into lightroom (following the tutorial) but message says insufficient space. I'm getting frustrated because I have this awesome thing that I can't use!
    Thanks,
    Annette

    The details you're providing are very helpful, Maj_Dad. With airplane mode enabled,
    there would be no message because that disables celluar data. I would recommend
    tying that mode with WiFi to see if it still happens. It sounds like this issue
    has something to do with one of the applications on the device.

  • TS1717 I keep getting an "unknown error -42408 message and it won't let me buy music?

    I keep getting an "unknown error-42408" message when I try to buy music - it then tells me to try again later, which I have done. 

    Hello suesq75,
    This error message indicates that there are one or more components of iTunes that are missing or damaged. Reinstalling iTunes should resolve the issue.

    Resolution
    Update to the latest version of iTunes.
    You can download the latest version of iTunes here.
    Note: iTunes 9.2.1 is the highest iTunes version available for Mac OS X v10.4. iTunes 10.6.3 is the highest iTunes version available for Mac OS X v10.5.

  • When using Lightroom Book module for Blurb book making, why do I keep getting a low image quality message if it's supposedly accessing my large raw files in my library?

    When using Lightroom Book module for Blurb book making, why do I keep getting a low image quality message if it's supposedly accessing my large raw files in my library?

    I think I've solved my problem with a Google Search. I came across a free slide show generator
    (contributions requested) that shows much higher quality slide shows than either iPhoto or Aperture 3.
    You click on a folder of jpegs and it almost immediately generates thumbnails and within a few seconds
    I can be viewing a full screen, tack sharp, slideshow of all of the files in the folder. Much sharper than
    I'm used to seeing.
    I think I'll keep the Aperture 3 and use if for the purpose it's intended for in the future. I'll also redo the
    image preview files to the small size it started with and then I'll copy all of the files I'm interested in from
    iPhoto into a separate folder on another disk. I'll use Aperture to catalog and to perform image manipulations
    on but I won't try to use it as an iPhoto replacement. I don't think I'll be using iPhoto much as an image
    viewer in the future either after I finish moving my favorite pictures to the Phoenix Slides folder.
    The name of the free program is Phoenix Slides. It's free to download and try, free to keep (though I
    think you'd want to pay the small amount requested) and fast. My pictures have never looked so good
    before.
