Malwarebytes blocked the MooWrapper domain today, and provided the following message: Secure Connection Failed Overlong records is a classic malfeasance technique, so the block is justified, but how does one contact the website owners if it's blocked? |

Malwarebytes blocked the MooWrapper domain today, and provided the following message:Perhaps use a Linux machine or one without malwarebytes installed. You could use a Linux live distro from a usb stick. None of the browsers on my Linux box seem to object to it. |

Perhaps use a Linux machine or one without malwarebytes installed. You could use a Linux live distro from a usb stick. None of the browsers on my Linux box seem to object to it. Thanks for your comment. I'm a former Unix user, but I have little experience with Linux distros. None of the browsers on my Win11 box object either. Malwarebytes is an antivirus, not a browser, and avoiding the problem doesn't solve it. Perhaps I wasn't clear. The question is: why does moowrap.net return a too-long record (a suspicious condition), and does the website contain a Trojan. It's still being flagged today. |

https://www.virustotal.com/gui/url/c341138a6b46be424003249a95f28c4835e09106bd88e0b3d48a69ca7b75785b shows no problems with that website, so it's your Malwarebytes that is the culprit. Probably a false positive. |

REPORT IT AS A *FALSE POSITIVE* to Malwarebytes. Like Jord said all current reports are showing no problems. Maybe your version of Malwarebytes is out of date? I had a new update automatically install over the weekend. Now website is back up Edit to add >> Report a false positive to Malwarebytes Support |
