Malware, virus or something else?


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Not sure if this is malware-related, so please bear with me. This has me baffled. I have two identical notebook computers with the same protection software and same browsers, IE and Firefox. Recently I noticed that with the computer that I'm on now (the other one is unaffected), using Firefox (works fine with IE), I can't access my Yahoo e-mail account. I can get to the home page and then sign in, but then I get this:

Not Found

The requested URL /mc/welcome was not found on this server.

Apache/2.2.9 (Debian) PHP/5.2.6-1+lenny9 with Suhosin-Patch Server at us.mc1302.mail.yahoo.com Port 80

-

Then when I go to a certain site, using Firefox (works fine with IE) that I've never had any problems with before, I get this:

The page has been blocked as it contains malware or exploits

The Web page you are trying to access contains malware and exploits that could infect your computer. We advise you not to continue visiting this page.

I understand that visiting the page could infect my computer. Continue

Protect yourself with Panda Cloud Antivirus

-

I've run a full scan on the up-to-date free version of Malware Bytes as well as a full scan using up-to-date Norton Antivirus 2011, which shows that everything is fine.

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

TIA
