I am trying to view a friend’s website (Momentumconcept.com). I am getting a message that is a dangerous website and it is blocked. I can choose to go to it, but I get the blocked message on every page. I can see other people have had the same problem, but I don’t see how to read the solutions that were given. Is there a way to ask Norton to analyse and remove the block?
Hello. The warning you are seeing is telling you that the site doesn’t support HTTPS protocol and can be dangerous to visit. Visit at your own risk to continue to the site. I would consult with your friend and ask whether they are aware of the issue.

Thanks very much for your advice. I will pass this on to my friend.
You’re welcome. Non HTTPS supported sites have a risk of having security issues regarding links embedded on the site, asking for and using personal information, etc. Your connection just isn’t secured. Glad we can help.
Edited: Even making the URL https://momentumconcept.com safe web gives me this information

The website owner SHOULD investigate what the initial case cause was for the listing taking place in the first place. Review their site and ensure there isn’t any hidden content within the site, regardless of Safe Web changing their rating just as a security precaution.

Dear BJM, thanks very much for your post. I understand from this that there have been two reports of abuse by the IP address. They seem to involve phishing. It looks like the IP owner has responded that it wasn’t true. There’s probably more information in the reports but that’s what I could understand. If you can explain it further to me, that would be great so I can explain this to my friend.
Hello @MrJeremyS_Bluhm
Nothing to explain. Apparently, some time ago…there were abuse reports. McAfee and Norton appear to be reporting same. Lets wait awhile to hear back from my submitted dispute.
Sucuri appears to be having issue reaching site…which may explain why Norton n’ McAfee are stuck on Phishing.
