G+_Scott Bumbalough Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 This is a followup for my post on the Opera browser reporting Bing as a malicious site. The following is the reason Opera gives for reporting Bing as malicious.

G+_Christopher Parsons Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 So the AVG browser-plugin caught it? That's a very good reason to not go to bing then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Stephan Vermette Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I think your Opera browser has a toolbar plug-in that's potentially malicious and not allowing to do searches (e.g. search to try to solve this very issue) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Jamie Allison Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 An update, looks like this is only happening on my Mac, my primary computer. when using my work Windows computer, Opera has no issue viewing bing. It's looking like the issue is something malicious on the Mac, my primary computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Jamie Allison Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Stephan Vermette Thanks! That is a good place for me to start looking. I'm hoping nothing got installed without my knowledge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
