Getbig blocked by Trend Micro Security
« on: December 10, 2010, 02:56:43 PM »
Added it to the trusted sites list but since every click is a new address, every page leads to "Are you sure..."

Also the layout has turned blocky and the page is white, quotes aren't in a quote box, can't highlight the text I'm now writing, etc.

Spooky.  ???

Never used Trend Micro nor heard good things about it.

See if you have an option to set an exception for the whole domain (www.getbig.com), which will include all pages of the site. If not, you could try disabling browser scanning or maybe even re-installing the software, in case it's a kink, which happens all the time.

Do you get the same problem with other browsers and sites?

No, just seems to be Getbig.

A site-wide exception doesn't seem to be taking but I'll monkey around with a reinstall.  Cheers, mate.

I am getting the same shenanigans too.

Trend micro is blocking every click getting to and within Getbig and giving the "Are you sure" page. It's loading a very basic white page with the quotes not being separated from the answers to them.

No pictures are loading which is actually a relief in some threads. All other web surfing is unaffected.

Reloaded this stuff not long ago and not keen to mess around with it again as everything else is running smoothly.

The smileys are working for you I see. Mine are AWOL.

(Insert aggro smiley here)

Nah, I just knew that the ??? smilie is three question marks so I typed it out.

If it's you too then I'll send 'em an email and maybe they'll tell me what's up.  Makes it way too much of a pain.

I don't know much about computers but they said the problem would be fixed once the captive children find the last sankara stone and the thugee ascend to power.  ???   Fucking technology.


Also, burnt.

Don't know that one.  I just run Trend.  There's nothing of value on my computer really so I don't worry much about security.

If re-installing doesn't work, try disabling it for a few minutes and turning it back on. You can also disable the firewall component, leaving the AV running, which will restore your browser back to normal.

Trend is one of the worst firewalls you can run, not because it doesn't work, but because it's too sensitive - OK for work computers where you are very limited in terms of what sites you can access, but not so for home use where you browse sites like Getbig, with pics in avatars and posts hosted in dodgy sites that will set the alarms off with the software.

If you can get it, I suggest you get Nod32 or even AVG, which do a good job and never cause issues like Trend does. If you need a copy, you know where to find it ;) ;D

Trend and AVG won't run together. Incompatible, like all of us. They sense eachother as enemies when in fact, they are both trying to do the same job.


Micosoft Security Essentials with C.C. Cleaner and AVG 2011 ain't bad.
