Earthlink keeps sending me a warning about DU

Says its a potentially fraudulent site and it tries to block me. What's going on?

2. Check the Ask the Administrators Forum,

another Eathlink user is experiencing the same thing and posted a question about it, check the thread for Elad's (admin in charge of computer programming and issues) response. He's contacting Eathlink to get some answers.

6. it just has something to do with the spam blocking or something like that

certificates or cookies or something. It's not a stance earthlink is taking, it's got something to do with the settings you've chosen.

7. I think I had the scam-blocker off to begin with

because it interferes with Norton. I'm not sure how it got changed. But the warnings have stopped.
