Yahoo server is listed as "high risk" at TrustedSource?

Jump to solution

I need help to recheck this IP "106.10.170.118" as it seems legit. TrustedSource list this IP's Web reputation as "high risk" without much other info. It is a Yahoo server based in Singapore with the host "ir1.fp.vip.sg3.yahoo.com" I believe.

Due to this, Mcafee Firewall is blocking access to www.yahoo.com on my computer. It happened 2 days ago. I want to go back to be able to browse the Yahoo main page. I can only access the Yahoo main page if I disable Firewall.

Please help out. Thanks!

Here's my other post in the Firewall section regarding the same matter.

Thanks to all who answered. Case is solved, and a speedy one that was!

I recommend that anyone who face similar problems (website blocked by TrustedSource / SiteAdvisor / Mcafee Firewall) to bring up their case to Mcafee through the original guide provided by  Ex_Brit below:

Email Mcafee to ask for a review of the blocked IPs and get a response within hours!

sites@mcafee.com

Mcafee reviewed the IP and unblocked the site again within HOURS! Kudos! I was pleasantly surprised by the speed of their action.

See THIS for help contacting SiteAdvisor and/or Trusted Source.

Meanwhile someone from that department may see this although I doubt any movement until at least tomorrow.
