a few minutes ago when i was browsing Icmag i recieved this warning



i closed the window down and have not seen it again

What caused it?

i use Firefox and Tor proxy

Anyone else seen similar and have an idea on how to avoid it?

I've never had an issue. You sure it's your browser and not your ISP?? Sounds more like an ISP issue.

ISP issue when im using TOR?

in that case it has to be an isp issue with the tor ip i had at the current time
( which i didnt save and TOR swithes ip about every 2 minuttes or so)

Gunna, I think its an ISP thing, when I use certain countries and also for some reason certain US east coast cities, ones in Jersey being the worst, I can't get into ANY canna site and get some sort of warning like you posted. And sometimes its different ISP's so some are putting filters on and apparently some ain't...........just my experience.
 
It almost looks like a message you'd get trying to surf at work - being blocked by a firewall :) Definitely not a TOR message, either an ISP message or if you've installed some kind of security software.

8e6 technologies (at the bottom) is a internet filtering/web proxy company, but they specialize in education/business/government, not personal software.

i just had the message again
must be the isp of the tor ip seen in the warning window.
Hope TOR gets that ip of the server list

i believe thats from the tor exit node your useing atm , you could restart tor or click use new identity which i believe is like a reset and will change exit nodes

I use firefox and have never seen a message resembling that. I know when I download casino's and gambling sites norton kicks out a warning, but nothing with firefox. Maybe you somehow initiated a v-chip or parental survalance function.

i doubt it since i didnt update any aps or browsers and i have a pretty good knopwledge on how a pc and its software works

without being sure im more with Epsteinbar.
I think its an isp problem cause by a bad TOR note
In both causes when i had the warning i had the same TOR ip also displayed in the picture ip 204....
 
Interesting, I got it just now, but for a different site. Somebody is running a TOR server somewhere that they probably shouldn't be :)

Exactly what I thought. You're being forwarded through a public library or some other censored server.

I saw this for the first time yesterday too - for a different site. Coincidence that I just did a windows update?

I thought it was adware/virus at first but all scans were clean. Only seen it once so far.

I just had it for the 3. time now

atleast 2 of the times it was when using this TOR ip
204.29.65.150
So im confident that it is a bad TOR node causing this cause it has a strict ISP.

There should be some ways in TOR to bann certain IP's from being used as nodes.
