When I go to open an attachment in Yahoo Mail I get a Warning about "this site being flagged as Phishing Site." It gives the option of Ignoring the Warning, Going Back, or Reporting an Error. It is apparently sponsored by Google? Unfortunately, none of the options actually let me download the attachment.

Each time I load intertent explore it switches off my Norton phishing protection. Why does it do this and can I override it?

I accidentally clicked into a link posted on Myspace the other day, and now when everybody updates their status, I comment on it with a phishing link (ED pills to "I saw a blog about you!".) Is there any way I could get rid of this? I already made a new account, but it carried on to that one too. :(

I can’t get into my facebook, but apparentlly all my facebook friends are having "look at this" emails sent to them with .be websites that are actually phishing sites. I’m concerned about identity theft, but don’t have too much personal information on facebook. But what do I do now to fix this problem and get my facebook back?

I am using Bitdefender Anti-Virus 2009, and there is Anti-phising with it for Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox. My main browser is Mozilla Firefox. Bitdefender anti-phishing is active in Firefox, for more security I downloaded and Installed McAfee SiteAdvisor. Will there be any clash between them?
