Norton Antivirus blocked access to Facebook after mistaking it for a phishing site (12-13.oct.2011)

I don`t wanna hear anymore how good is Symantec / Norton :thumbsdown:

- finally they solved (?!?) the problem : :shy:

PS : do you think that this is the only issue ? -> wrong : :yes:

:duh:

i tried download bad Files from Malwaredomainlist and Norton not detect this Files with Download-Insight , the Files have Poor Reputations .

This is not only a Bug , this is a Security Issue.

What's wrong with that? :troll:

LOL! :P Even ESET blocks it (Parental Control)

[tipo]

i read somewhere that microsoft is going to release an update that will block facebook too and another one that will block the internet services for more privacy

PS: just kidding! relax facebookers! ;)

Both ESET v5 and Norton 2012 = false positives are crazzyy.

Pre years was Kaspersky also there, but in 2012, they have manage to be among the best with very few Fase posetive.

Lets hope that ESET/Norton do better next year, this year was a flat fail for the two....

[BBs]

i don't see any false positive in that :P dunno why they fix it :D

[avmad]

I agree robalm, but they're still working on the 2 so time to fix things yet. Don't have to wait for 2013 :o hopefully, for the people that use them anyway. :lol:

The new Comodo seems to have some major flaws as well atm but most will likely be fixed soon. Except the GPCODE thingy. When I watch Norton tests on Youtube, malware always manages to shut it down and delete it. That one scares me for all the users safety :s

:o What is Facebook??....All I remembered when I was young my mom smacked my face & told me to read my book :unsure: Since than I can't think straight :blink: .. :P

[sanjoa]

@AlienForce1: Looks like you really hate norton, man. :P

[AlienForce1]

No , I don`t hate it , I don`t love it either ...

In fact I use NAV2011 on one desktop , for my son ...

But , I tried the latest NAV2012 and this one I really don`t like it ...

ALL the major AVs could block FB and I would never even know it...and that's the way I like it. :sneaky:
