Just got this message from Norton upon linking from that site to occupywallstreet.org

I didn't get anything from my AVG. I wonder if Norton's been 'politically compromised?

Re: head's up

Perhaps. But all but one of the 30+ Norton user "reviews" of the site are all done by sock puppets (and probably the same one person), which doesn't give me any confidence. The concern is over drive-by downloading.

Drive-by Downloads
A drive-by download is computer code that takes advantage of a software bug in a Web browser to make it do something that the attacker wants-such as run malicious code, crash the browser, or read data from the computer. Software bugs that are open to browser attacks are also known as vulnerabilities.

I'll let you know if I find out more.

The site does say it's on 'emergency read mode only' and gave me a '404' when I tried to comment.

Go here instead:

How about here?

For the record, I don't have any problem visiting the "occupywallst" site, but I'm on a Mac.

Norton reports the adbuster's site as safe
