    checkip.dyndns.org blocked by Norton Internet Security 2013

    Hi,
    I didnt have any problems related to Norton Internet Security 2013 but from last 2 days I started getting popup of NIS that says web attack. After opening the popup it tells me that "checkip.dyndns.org" is blocked because it is an attack site. I dont recall that this site has any kind of virus so why I am getting this error? Why this site in NIS 2013 is suddenly marked as attack site? Any ideas? Thanks

    Even I am getting the same popup from last 2-3 days. This problem never happend before. I have also installed Malwarebytes which is not picking up anything. I dont know for sure but it might be possible that Norton is blocking this website which could be blocked by the conflicker worm. It will be good if norton can release a patch for this issue.

    Well, checkip.dyndns.org doesnt have anything wrong at their side and havent be hacked either. So, this issue is definitely happening due to a last update that was released from Norton that messed up the NIS 2013. Anyways, to solve this issue, go into Network and then Intrusion Signatures and then Configure and then disable "Web Attack: Malicious Website Accessed 2". After doing this, DynDNS will start to work again properly.

    Even I was getting this same problem but after latest installing the latest updates released for Norton Internet Security 2013, this problem seems to have been solved. Now am able to open dyndns.org and also I am not getting any more annoying popup message that I used to get earlier due to the bad update.
