A couple of times over the past few weeks, while navigating between BF sub-forums, I'll get a pop-up warning from my AV/AM saying ...

"cutleryedgeworks.com malicious website blocked"

Scans come back clean.

Anyone else seeing that?
 
cutleryedgeworks.com

Oops, sorry. It was "cuttingedgeworks.com"


I'm running the latest version of Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Premium. From it's 11/05 log ...

Hey, it just did it again! While composing this reply, I clicked on "Go Advanced" and the Malicious Website Blocked dialog popped up again listing "cuttingedgeworks.com". In fact, it now pops up just about every time I click on "Preview Post". ????

And I just get this when navigating around BF.

A quick search finds that cuttingedgeworks was a BF dealer back in 2009 but WHOIS says that website is now "for sale".

MB might be set too sensitive and is picking up heuristics of the archived stuff. It can also be related to a possible ad somewhere, maybe a tweaked URL somewhere on the forums.
