Start10 About "Visit Website" link causes phishing warning in Malwarebytes

from Stardock Forums

Just letting you know the "Visit Website" button in the About Start10 window (v1.91) causes a phishing warning in Malwarebytes. It seems to be using a URL redirect which is not good practice and will cause warnings in many different security software.

Here is the warning detail:

Malwarebytes

www.malwarebytes.com

-Blocked Website Details-

Malicious Website: 1

-Website Data-

Category: Phishing

Domain: windows10download.com

IP Address: 51.158.68.1

Port: 443

Type: Outbound

File: C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe

 

 

If I also click this link on your website - https://www.stardock.com/products/start10/ - it gives the same phishing warning.

Thanks. It is no real issue as the 1.91 update installed fine. False positives are annoying but of course we should always be vigilant.
