Please help!
My form has been working beautifully for a number of years, but today when some folks click on the SUBMIT button they are getting the following message:
"URL is blocked"
This message is coming from TrendMicro OfficeScan. This doesn't seem to be affecting everybody, just folks on our college network. The network folks say that TrendMicro has reported the mycontactform.com URL as a phishing site and is blocking it. Any ideas how to fix this? thanks. |

Good Day,
A third party falsely reported myContactForm.com as a phishing site to another third party company that maintains these types of lists (Open DNS). Open DNS then sells these lists to other companies (such as Trend Micro). This is the reason for the error.
This issue was noticed almost immediately, and I was able to successfully contact Open DNS and have them remove the phishing label. These types of error messages should no longer be appearing.
