Default Block NetBus Trojan

Post by erik »

This is what my Norton Firewall alert told me. What exactly does it mean? When i checked the log it showed my main email address. So what exactly was trying to take place? It happened when i tried to go to "mazda.com"

erik,

My guess is that on that website you were going to, it may have had a applet on it. An applet is something that runs from your web browser. Basically your firewall thought it may have been a Trojan type virus. Put it this way...you didn't miss anything on the website. Most of the time those applets are annoying pop-up adds or banners.

Your firewall is doing it's job correctly.
