    lol , malwarebytes as the name suggests is anti spyware software , and very good one too but gives out a lot of false positives sometimes and tends to block some sites , which don't even mean any harm. just right click on the desktop bar, and configure it correctly problem solved.

    and i guess this not legal problem, if you want post yr site here and i will see if my version of malwarebytes blocks it too.

    There's nothing that you can do about this situation. You can try and submit your website so they can recheck your website, but I highly doubt that it's going to affect your websites popularity. Anybody with common sense can just turn off "IP Protection" on Malware-Bytes. That's the tool used that blocks websites.

    Yugo,

    opened perfectly fine, neither nod32 stopped it nor did my firewall which the the most imp one, as YugoSlavac said anyone with common sense can right click and turn off IP protection in malwarebytes .

    I get: malware bytes has succesfully bocked access to malicious ip 209.190.85.14. I had a look at your source code and can't see anything dodgy going on so I guess you are good to go. The only problem is that if you are on a shared server you are sharing that ip address with lots of other websites.

    if that is your dedicated ip (not shared hosting) then you might want to contact malwarebytes and ask them to remove the block

    hope that helps

    Have you tried contacting the company and explaining everything already? They will probably give a reason why your site is blocked by their software so you can solve it ;)
