    I'm not sure where to post this.

    I have a thread in "Removing Spyware and Viruses" and each time I select post a reply and begin typing my phishing filter alerts me "this may be a phising site ".

    The title of my thread is "spybot removed smithfraud and virtumonde - i think "

    I tried replying in other forums to see if I would get the same reponse but those were fine. It seems to be happening only on that thread.

    I dunno... I have IE8 + Phishing filter, but replying to thread doesn't do anything.

    Now you can expect behavior like that with certain threads in the Spyware forum.

    Just a guess, :confused:
    Did you subscribe to the thread?
    Could it be because you have a Subscription to that thread and asked for email notifications?

    Maybe asking to be notified to responses to the thread produced the warning??
