Message started with this: Software is preventing Firefox from safely connecting to this site. Firefox spotted a potentially serious security issue with attlocal.net. Someone pretending to be the site could try to steal things like credit card info, passwords or emails. Then it showed 2 choices: Go back (recommended) and advanced. CAN YOU HELP ME FIND OUT WHAT I SHOULD DO ABOUT THIS NOW?

Hi

Are you sure that this is the correct website address?

Thanks for getting back on this. Just went on internet and no longer see the message anymore! The website referred to was attlocal.net. I ran a virus scan and it didn't show anything wrong. I really don't know what caused this, but I'm relieved it seems to have resolved somehow. Again, thanks for replying.
