The microsoft phishing filter and how to go about getting rid of it

Hi Ann, I have a site here on webpiston as well. I looked over your site an really liked what I saw. However one thing I noticed was that the microsoft phishing filter pops up on every page, and that HAS to be detracting from your sales an potential customers.

If you are not running internet explorer as your browser you can contact microsoft directly an give them your url for each of your pages. They also ask for the url to your privacy policy an I see you dont have one. I would suggest you create one, even though you dont handle any info on your site create one for the business aspect of it. One more step towards securing yuor customers faith in your outlet. Billy.

Hi Billy, thank you for letting me know what was happening with my website re. the phishing filter pop up window.

I don't have IE7 and therefore didn't see anything on screen.

I have since sent in 2 reports to Microsoft letting them know my website is legitimate, and that they have made a mistake; and asked them to take this stuff off my website. I am waiting for them to take this incorrect stuff off my website.

I appreciate your help on this.

Ann.

Hi Billy, thank you for letting me know re. the phishing filter.

I have since gotten this removed from my website. My website is a legitimate website, and it was being incorrectly flagged.

I appreciate your bringing this to my attention.

Ann.
