I'm getting blocked by phish.opendns.com on chrome and IE now. With no way of getting past. Well except Tapatalk.
Chris mentioned that this morning. I guess they got the update from google afterwards. I've asked Chris to click on the report link, and would ask all of you to do the same. The only options would be for you to remove opendns from your DNS until they give the site the all clear.

The clientscript folder is still clear:

[root@www ~]# clamscan --infected --recursive /home/XXXXXX/XXXXXX/clientscript

I'm getting the same from Kapersky. Doesn't matter what browser, of course, since it's Kapersky. Very annoying - I'll get a half dozen or more popups on every single page I open. It's reporting almost every URL on the page, one by one. I'll try to find a way to contact Kapersky about it...

I have submitted a "false positive" report on Kapersky's website. They even gave me a ticket number! :) I had to lie, though. I said that the site admin was a really nice, honest person and would never be involved in anything shady. :D I'll keep you posted when I hear anything from them.

I've got a ticket number as well...

Maybe since you're a customer they'll give you the time of day!

Got that notice on the 6th at work, our Firewall uses OpenDNS, but when it blocks, we have a form we can fill out to fix the site data - I sent in a form and got this reply the next morning and it was working (I use all browsers at work):

Hello Tim,

The phish tag has been removed from the 'steelsoldiers.com' domain. Thank you for your patience with this matter.

Might take a little bit of time to propagate out that "fix". I'd recommend to users that they CTRL+F5 reload the page, this should force a reload and wipe any cache of any file the site uses.

Well, I got an email from Kapersky saying my case is CLOSED. No way to follow up and see what they did about it. The "case number" they gave me doesn't do me any good - there's no place on their site to enter it to see how it was resolved. And it's still blocked. I think I"ll be switching to a different AV product!

Well, I'm thoroughly unimpressed with them!

Opened another support case.

If everyone could visit this site:
http://support.kaspersky.com/content/helpdesk.html

Add "www.steelsoldiers.com/clientscript" to the address bar. Tell it more than 100K visits. (Maybe they'll pay attention)

I picked internet securities 2014 and the only version option it gave me.

Date is kinda tricky. You'd need to enter it like 01/13/2014. I just put the current date/time.

Attributed and desired "Forums and chats".

Then in the box I put "This site no longer has the phishing exploit, please remove it from your list".

Your email and the security code.




Maybe if we get a couple hundred people reporting it, they'll get off their tookus and correct their database.
