Please excuse me if this is not the best forum for this topic. But as a newbie, didn't know where else to post. For the last 4-5 days, I have been receiving a Malicious Domain Request Alert from Norton whenever I open Firestorm. The alert says that an intrusion attempt was blocked from an IP address. Should I be worried about this? Is there anything I should do to prevent this?   

Thanks

Z

It's probably a false positive.  Antivirus software tends to hate the slplugin & Dullahan media plugins & will often see them as a threat.

However we've seen a few cases of users infected with browser redirect malware which attempts to redirect the login page to a malicious page or try to add pop up adverts to the login web page.

Please can you post a screenshot showing the alert from Norton.
