Client said my website triggers a trojan horse warning


Recommended Posts

Hi,

A client called me to say a website of mine contains a virus. I scanned the website with the top 3 website virus scanners and it found nothing. I also scanned the server. Nothing.

here is the URL: hxxp://bookhd.ca

Why does NOD32 (ESET Internet security) report it? She is using Internet Explorer by the way.

Thank you

The url doesn't appear to be blocked by ESET and I was able to open it in a browser alright.

Even then it should not be blocked by ESET. Let's wait for OP to post more info.

Hi guys,

Thanks for responding.

Could it be from Nod32 itself? The info I have is simply that she uses nod32 and Internet Explorer. As it was already hard for me to get that information from the secretary.

So no one is able to replicate her warning?

Thanks

First it helps if you post the correct link as shown below which shows it is a https web site with a revoked certificate. I could not connect to http://bookhd.ca receiving the same "This page can't be displayed error":

Just for information purposes... running ESET Smart Security 10.1.210 and in Chrome had no problem accessing hxxp://bookhd.ca.

There's no alert about a trojan or malware triggered by ESET. The problem is that the certificate used for https communication was revoked. Here's what a browser reports without ESET installed:

An error occurred during a connection to bookhd.ca. Peer's Certificate has been revoked. Error code: SEC_ERROR_REVOKED_CERTIFICATE

Also there's a certificate common name mismatch: https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=bookhd.ca&ignoreMismatch=on&latest
