BuckoA51 Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 Apologies if someone spotted this before, I didn't see anything in a search of the forums. I was using Yahoo's in-pointing links tool to check sites that link into my own. Obviously Hak5 was picked up due to my signature, apparently Hak5 is dangerous:- Dangerous? Really? LOL@Yahoo :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eovnu87435ds Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 lol. Mabye you should report that to yahoo... Also, that link tool, does that work on any site? Where might I find it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deleted Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 Its McAfee Site Advisor. It flags up Hak5 because of the USB Switchblade Utilities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infiltrator Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 I think Yahoo needs to do some more work on their malware definitions signatures. It doesn't look right to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr-Protocol Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 This same thing happened with my F-Secure client security 9. It's web toolbar scans for bad sites while browsing and it said hak5 was flagged as harmful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IOSys Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 Well, what do you expect when you offer something for download that basically pwns people 200 % ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuckoA51 Posted July 21, 2010 Author Share Posted July 21, 2010 Haha I suppose if you are stupid enough the downloads on Hak5 could be classed as dangerous. In other news Googles shoving my reply notifications into my spam folder, hence me not replying sooner. eovnu87435ds, you used to be able to enter linkdomain:top-windows-tutorials.com -site:top-windows-tutorials.com into Yahoo to see inpointing links (obviously substitute top-windows for your site) but it looks like Yahoo are tweaking things and that's not working at the moment.
