Incorrectly blocked website
Good evening
I was installing an extention called Download Flash and Video in Firefox from their website (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/download-flash-and-video/?src=ss) when I received a harmful website message for the author's site. I checked in my recent events and found that this site is blocked. I am unable to unblock it. Why is this site tagged as a harmful site and how do I remove the blockage? The iste's url is: fvdmedia.com/fvd-welcome-ff/.
Regards
Philip
EDIT: Potentially malicious website link

You should consult the F-secure secure analysis service(SAS) by submitting the sample url with details to get notified of the analysis result

Hello,
With my own experience -> such website marked as "Suspicious"-rated page;
Possible to use F-Secure SAS:
https://www.f-secure.com/en/web/labs_global/submit-a-sample#sample-url
And ask for re-rate (or for explanation about current rating) F-Secure Labs;
Why it not possible to unblock page? Does your experience about F-Secure Freedome or their F-Secure SAFE/IS solution?
Also I not sure about potential reasons for such rating (or so); But based on virustotal.com -> their domain was previously related with such file:
https://www.virustotal.com/#/file/2b0607da8dc6de6ea43839f6ef8da5ffe191edf81f67ae52f741e2523b1e0c99
Usually false positive ratings by F-Secure can be based on something like:
--> other third-party common databases did include URL (which F-Secure able to use);
--> domain is hacked/exploited by someone;
--> automatically based on some suspicious points;
But F-Secure Labs should to create more good answer after F-Secure SAS transfer;
Thanks!
