Why am I continually getting this warning when using hive.blog??? "We've safely aborted connection on hivebuzz.me because it was infected with URL:PHISHING"

in #hive • 3 years ago

What is going on here? I am getting this message multiple times per day when using hive.blog on my firefox desktop Windows PC.

Why is AVG throwing this at me? What is hivebuzz.me and why does it think I am going there? I am not visiting that website.

    This is a (very annoying) false-positive alarm from AVG.
    Hivebuzz website doesn't collect any information from users.
    There are multiple tools available online where you can test websites' URL for phishing and they will report no phishing alert.

      I got that same warning on hive.blog. I mostly use peakd but had to go to hive blog for some reason and got that also.
