Dangerous Page Notification

I get the notification below every minute, which stops my typing, etc. HELP!

  1. I have no idea why Powershell is sending this request, or how to find out.
  2. If I can't solve the problem, can I aturn off the notifications??

Thanks!

  • Hello @geosch,

    I get the following message when trying to access the link:

    The page you are trying to access contains malware.

    Detected malware: Cloud Malware. Access from your browser has been blocked.

    However, I cannot tell why powershell.exe is attempting to access this.

    I would recommend contacting the Technical Support Teams, as more information might be required to troubleshoot this. You can get in touch with our engineers by choosing one of the contact methods available here:

  • At the very least, Bitdefender should not "steal" the focus and prevent the user from doing what they were doing.

  • @Thepipe I'm with you on this one.

    The notifications should be designed in a way that doesn't interfere with other actions performed on the machine by the user. And this is exactly what the developers are working on.
