Mcafee blocking ebay uk?

kelk72

Hi Ive been searching on ebay uk and mcafee wont let me search i keep getting a security pop up saying its a risky connection. Ive tried opening mcafee security centre and going to net guard and firewall and putting in ebay uk as an allowed site but it still wont let me search on ebay any ideas please?

Mcafee is possibly blocking something other than ebay.co.uk

hi thanks. I clicked on your 2nd link and entered the 2 Ip addresses (singly) that were blocked and both came up as "malicious sites high risk"! Then i clicked on your 1st link -mcafee site advisor ebay uk - and that said ebay uk was safe ...so im confused? What does it mean? Thanks

PM me the link that mcafee is blocking.

One of those rare occasions when McCrappee blocks anything...

Yes, it looks as though Mcafee is correct. There's quite a lot of malware to be found on that IP range.
