Dear ladies, dear gentlemen,

on another Computer, when using Firefox, I am now constantly getting a Norton notification of a malicious domain request 22. The problem does NOT arise with the Opera browser installed on the same machine. What shall I do? Uninstall Firefox seems to be the best solution. Scans do not reveal presence of malware. On this computer, similar OP, this does not happen, but I use it much less.

Thanks a lot, Alexander

Could be about a website trying to load ads that Norton doesn't like.

Thanks for the info. Norton browser extension for safe brwosing is installed. BUT you sometims get the notification with the browser running but no tab opened. So I think it's the browser that's infected or Norton is hypervigilant.
