When I visit several of my web sites in IE10 (Windows 8) I get a yellow warning "shield" to the right of the address bar and when I hover over this it says "Are you trying to visit this web site?". If I click on this shield it gives me options to "Report this website as safe" or "Report this website as unsafe".
I have these websites registered in Bing Webmaster, and clicking on Security/Malware it tells me "Bing did not find any harmful elements on your site."
I need to find out why IE is telling the world that there's something wrong with my sites when Bing Webmaster tells me there's nothing wrong with them.
at https://feedback.smartscreen.microsoft.com/smartscreenfaq.aspx I read the following ...
Q. If I am a website owner, how do I correct a warning on my legitimate site?
A. You can immediately submit a request for a correction. SmartScreen Filter has a built-in, web-based feedback system in place to help customers and website owners report any potential false warnings as quickly as possible. In Windows Internet Explorer, from
a red warning, click More information then Report that this site contains no threats. This will take you to a feedback page where you can indicate you are a site owner or representative. Follow the instructions and provide the information on this site to submit
a site for review.
To report feedback from the Internet Explorer Download Manager, Right-click on the blocked download and choose Report that this file is safe. This will take you to the feedback page.
Once a dispute is submitted, a team of graders inspects the site in question. All disputes should be submitted through the website reporting process to ensure the quickest resolution.
The problems are: (1) my warning is yellow, not red (2) there is no "More information" link/button (3) Therefore I can't "report that this site contains no threats.
an example site is http://countrynet.com.au/
Furthermore, if I respond to the "Report this website as safe" process more than once I get this message " ...Error
This web address (URL) has already been submitted in this browser session. If you are owner or representative of this website and are trying to access the site owner form, please close your browser, and then resubmit the form in a different browser session."
So this message refers to the "site owner form" which I am unable to find.
