Problem with one extension listing Amazon partner

Post by mcsmom » Wed Mar 21, 2007 3:32 pm

There is a new extension listed, Amazon partner. When I click on the link, my phishing blocker comes up. This doesn't happen for any other extension.

Hi mcsmom,

It's happening for me both for FF and IE7.

update: it's the link to the extensions page, not their site, that is generating the message. That is, if I click on its name in the latest module.

Your browsers think that the extension server is phishing? That's a good one.

Just that one extension link--very odd. But now it stopped.  :)

Maybe it has detected that the extension directory admins needed a break and wanted to go fishing down at the lake?  :laugh:
