Whats My IP Address - Reported Attack Page

[ibaker]

Just started to find that when I click on the IP addresses of users the What's My IP Address web site comes up with a Reported Attack Page

 

[Mr. Goodie2Shoes]

I am not getting it...

 

[ibaker]

That's strange...it was working ok for me a few hours ago and then suddenly when ever I click on an IP address in any post on my site I get:

 

[Mr. Goodie2Shoes]

hmm... the attack pages' info are provided by Google... clear your cache and if it does any thing...

 

[ibaker]

I am using Firefox so I cleared my cache...all of it for today...cookies, history, everything but still the same

If I go straight to the address http://whatismyipaddress.com in IE it is all ok

It seems the advisory was done 5hrs ago:

 

[Mr. Goodie2Shoes]

I guess you have to wait till Google re-caches the site...

Thanks Mate!

I got it too, clicked the box to send feedback to G and then proceeded.

It's possible that Mozilla and Google exchange information all the time to prevent you from going to an attack page. It is, after all, Silicon Valley.

Most of the time I am still getting the warning but the odd time it does let me through...wonder whether it is one of their random adverts that may be doing it...a real pain in the butt but not sure whether to ignore it and go through or not

It's possible that it's more related to the IP address that's being displayed on the page itself/canonical URL.

Like I said, I think Google and Mozilla exchange information all the time, the tech industry is pretty tight knit. Especially in Silicon Valley.

I got this too and I've had it happen before. It will go away.

Hi,I cannot get it what you are saying.
"What's My IP Address" web site displays the details of your ISP IP address.I found many online sites similar to that.I have found my ISP's IP address using the site IP-details.com here it displays the information like ISP(Internet Service Provider),IP location,country,latitude,longitude etc..

 

[ibaker]

Don't worry mate, as Oxymoron says above after it happened to him, it has gone away for me now

 

[SneakyDave]

That's a good suggestion, maybe make the IP resolver a built in function, rather than use What's My IP

If you want to keep it within XenForo until it's a native function, feel free to change your IP Information URL under Options -> Spam Management to:
