Please Help! Phishing Warning...

    I am having a terrible time making sales on my website because a few of my pages bring up a "Phishing" warning on IE7 and Firefox (3 i think).

    I am not sure why, and am absolutley floored as to how to fix it.

    I promise I am 100% legitimate.

    I use paypal for the shopping cart. I use Xsite Pro to build the site. There really isn't much going on regarding the scripting...its all pretty basic HTML.

    The website URL is sonakishowerheads.com.

    I have put a lot of time into the site, and want to continue to grow it...but I am completely stumped on this issue and can't do much with the site until it is fixed.

    I would appreciate any and all feedback from anyone who might now how to get rid of this warning. Even if you can just point me in the right direction.

    Seriously, I will send 1 free Vitamax Universal Shower Filter if you are able to help me get rid of this d*** thing.

    Any help is GREATLY appreciated.

    Thank you!


    - Brian

    When is this error message coming up / what pages? I checked the site on Internet Explorer 7 and IE8 - nothing seemed to come up. I was not sure though what page(s) should be checked.

    It could be the scripts being ran for the YouTube video - I found this page. You might see if you get the same error without the script (or calling images / other objects from outside your domain).

    The error (which pops up on the upper right area of my window, next to the address bar in IE) shows up on the Store page (Try One...) and all the individual product pages.

    Thanks Corey.

    It seems to come up on any of the pages that you have the Paypal information on. Try adding the 'Paypal add to cart' to one of the established links to see if you get the error message. If so, you might need to wait for Microsoft to update their list of URLs - try reporting it as a non-phishing website.

    There is only ONE WAY you can remove it, by contacting Microsoft:

    Since this is the only way, should I PM you my mailing address :D

    If enough people report it as safe, it will eventually reset.

    Peace,

    Azizny,

    I did what you said and it looks like Microsoft is working on fixing the problem.

    I am going to PM you right now, I just wanted to reply here so everyone that cares knows that I am going to follow through on my initial promise. Sorry it took so long...I have been on vacation. Thank you so much for you help, everybody. It is nice to know that people are so willing to help!

    Thanks again.

    Your problem extends beyond contacting Microsoft. The way you set your page up is going to trigger the phishing filter. There are other phishing filters besides Microsoft's that may be set off by your page as well.
