I have no problem at all.
I use Google Chrome and BullGuard for antivirus protection!

I use Google Chrome and Norton 360 Premier and have never had this message ever before. I use the WxInspector occasionally, but use geometry on my computer screen more frequently.
I do not know how to check on the safety of WxInspector.

Rod - I will draw Markku's attention to this... BUT I believe I can throw some light on this.

As you know, Sailonline NavSim AB when it was formed "moved" the Sailonline server from a small stand-alone one in Sweden to a larger one in Germany run by a company called Hetzner. Its a server "farm".

Early on we had problems with some of our emails being blocked as malicious etc and investigation showed that a former tenant on the server Sailonline NavSim AB had been allocated had been a"baddie". Our Tech Team worked on the matter, providing relevant IDs etc to Microsoft and the world and, as far as I know the matter was fixed.

This is either a hangover "blacklist" from those days (2013) OR its something new.

Either way, I am sure out Tech Team will let us know!


P.S. WX Inspector was established on hmm's server (which lives with the Sailonline one at Hetzner) just before Aaron died... but it may be that it doesn't have up to date certificates as WX Inspector was created in 2012 or so.

Sounds like a false positive for Symantec.

The site has remained the same for 4 years, possible past history of the IP has nothing to do with this.

Attn hmm.... Has anything been done about this problem with WxInspector? I am still getting the same message from Symantec/Norton about this problem. I wrote to them on their 'Contact' facility but have had no reply. The way I read their site statements, the owner of the site is the one who must complain if anything is to be done....
