quack2 Posted July 20, 2013 #1 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Is anyone else getting a computer virus warning on Holland's website? I'm getting one there and nowhere else. Norton is catching it, but I'm wondering what's up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtl513 Posted July 20, 2013 #2 Share Posted July 20, 2013 I just tried a few things and got no warning from my Norton. When do you see it? (i.e. after doing what?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watson's aunt Posted July 20, 2013 #3 Share Posted July 20, 2013 hi I got one last night my computer went crazy and I got the warning. So I shut down and did another scan. Mary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Host Anne Posted July 20, 2013 #4 Share Posted July 20, 2013 I'm getting it as well. I've had the problem last night and this morning. Norton is saying it is an attack by Exploit Toolkit Website 21 and it's a box that pops up every time I access any page on HAL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruising-along Posted July 20, 2013 #9 Share Posted July 20, 2013 I'm getting it as well. I've had the problem last night and this morning. Norton is saying it is an attack by Exploit Toolkit Website 21 and it's a box that pops up every time I access any page on HAL. I got it this morning when I did an online check-in for my September cruise. Norton stopped it. I think I'll stay off HAL's website for awhile!

Randyk47 Posted July 20, 2013 #10 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Hmmm....doubled check my virus updates and ran a scan before I tried HAL's website. Got on with no warning or issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrznonRmynd Posted July 20, 2013 #13 Share Posted July 20, 2013 I'm glad I chose to check this site before checking the HAL site for my September cruise. Thank you OP for the warning. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dobbsie Posted July 20, 2013 #14 Share Posted July 20, 2013 I've been getting this since yesterday. Today I did a total scan of my computer and tried the HAL website again. The Norton warning returned. Will stay away from the HAL site until this is fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamloops50 Posted July 20, 2013 #15 Share Posted July 20, 2013 I'm currently using Windows 7 with Microsoft Security essentials and don't have any issues . Since Norton was sold to Symantec , the quality has gone down badly . Many corporations now refuse to use Norton and use McAfee . You could try the following: 1 - Update your browser to the latest version 2 - Update your Norton virus definitions . New standards for websites have caused Norton problems . Some standard in-bedded code is assumed to be a virus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
startwin Posted July 20, 2013 #16 Share Posted July 20, 2013 I'm still not getting it using Firefox or IE. Strange! :confused: I got it last night on both IE and Firefox. Haven't tried this morning, yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taz Posted July 20, 2013 #17 Share Posted July 20, 2013 I'm using a Mac and didn't have any issues/warnings. I think I'll stay off the site for a while though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Storylady Posted July 20, 2013 #18 Share Posted July 20, 2013 We have had the warning for the past two days. Thursday and Friday. You would have thought that it would be fixed by now. And my friend in Florida also got the warning and he has two virus protections on his computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
startwin Posted July 20, 2013 #19 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Just tried again, still getting the warning. I have new computer, but running Windows 7, and totally updated Norton. AVG also alerted. I'll just stay away for awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoHoHo Posted July 20, 2013 #20 Share Posted July 20, 2013 This can happen becasue of an infection on a web site but it is because your device is not up-to-date Bottom line is staying off of HALs website is only part of the solution. You need to protect yourself from this vulnerability on your computer can be exploited from another infected website We have uninstalled Java a long time back. Holes were popping up too frequently for us to be worth the risk. But these exploits use vulnerabilities in several programs so java alone is not the problem - just one of them Many articles such as: http://www.esecurityplanet.com/hackers/black-hat-web-exploit-toolkits-prey-on-lazy-users.html Keep your devices up-to-date as well as an updated AV/malware program such as Norton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamloops50 Posted July 20, 2013 #21 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Try uninstalling Norton and AVG. Go to Microsoft and install Microsoft Internet Essentials. It has built virus program. I don't know if AVG or Norton have been updated for W7 especially if are running a 64 bit version.

Krazy Kruizers Posted July 20, 2013 #22 Share Posted July 20, 2013 I was trying to look at some itineraries about 3 hours ago -- I also got the warning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norton is doing its job by telling you there's a problem with the HAL site. I'm running Norton Internet Security with a 64-bit Windows 7 Ultimate operating system and no issues.
