Hello there! Idk is out of the ordinary but I am just slightly concerned. So I use chrome, I have an ad block, and I was reading comics but Norton said "Malicious Domain: Malicious Site Request 22" and then said "No action required", from what I read it has something to do with the site having ads or attempting to redirect me to an ad, but I just want to confirm there is nothing to worry about?
Hello
You could run a full scan with the free version of Malwarebytes.
Download the free version, install and update then run a FULL scan.
You can find Malwarebytes here

Malwarebyttes 3 has been made to run along side Norton and other 3rd party security programs.

All you have to do is disable the trial in Settings>Account. That will disable the live time settings also. There is also another Setting to stop the program from starting with Windows. So only 2 settings to change to make the program be a on - demand scanner as previously in version 2.
Have a Good Night and
Thanks.
- You could check the Norton History to see what site is trying to connect with your computer. From the main Norton screen, click on the Security pillar then on History and browse through the recent history to find the entry for your detection. You may also find it under Resolved Security Risks in the drop down menu at the top of the History screen.
- Any action is dependent on exactly what is noted about the malicious site. As long as Norton has blocked the site, then there is nothing more you need to do. You cannot stop someone from trying to access your computer.
- As noted in 2, Norton has done its job.
