There's something Phishy going on?

I changed my Internet Security software suite this week. I've been using McAfee for a few years, with only a few minor problems, but, to my annoyance, they have recently charged me for a new year's worth of 'protection' without even asking!

So, I decided to jump ship and go with the latest, well reviewed, Kaspersky security software. After several days of struggling to 'train' my new guardian into remembering what to allow to run on my PC, I've found that the last update causes my blog to be considered a Phishing site!! When I try to get to this very page the following popup window appears, accompanied by a ear-splitting Scrreeeching sound!


It looks like all Google Blogger Blogspot sites are currently being seen like this by Kaspersky users all over the world. Bloody hell! I guess the good news is that it's not just me. They'd better fix this soon or I'll be jumping back to McAfee.

Let me apologise on Kaspersky's behalf to anyone getting the above Phishing Attack message when visiting this blog. Grrr.
