Trojan on the Store www.site
Hello Mgmt or Web Master.
I clicked on one of the ads in the banner on the Kitco storefront about metal storage
Caution advised do NOT click this link
https://online.kitco.com/storage
My virus client alerts with a message saying "Threat Found" and this is the culprit
HTML/ScrInject.B trojan
Hope this helps someone somehow

Thomas Jefferson is credited with writing, “When injustice becomes law, resistance becomes duty.” The seceding states in the Civil War period issued a similar declaration using the word “tyranny” as opposed to “injustice.”

That must be a virus that KITCO desires to have on the store front page ads.
Click the link and they got ya. ??
It is still residing in that ad. I posted here and even emailed the webmaster.
What is the deal? Seems like a weird thing to me.

vertical1,
It was looked into when you posted on March 17th. The page is safe for anyone to visit.
https://safeweb.norton.com/report/sh....com%2Fstorage
It is unclear why an accusation such as "Kitco must desire a virus to be on the page" would be made. That seems over the top but it probably was made without malice intent.
eset.com has a page to submit report for false positive results of safe sites, but it's not clear how to actually submit them. https://help.eset.com/efsw/7.3/en-US...aron_urlb.html
Since you own the eset product perhaps you would submit it to them for their review
Thank you,
Member
There was NO malice intent I assure you. Rather my lack of understanding of how a thing such as what I encountered would work.
I can submit to ESET and shall. thank you for your assistance. I will even call them and have them help me understand this issue.
Thank you sir.

Information was submitted to eset.
