Can't Download Pollyanna (version 2)

[JohannaC]

I was going to post this to the Error Report forum but on registering was told to post it to Need Help instead.

I have had no problems downloading the zip file, cover art and CD insert pdf for several books except for one.

Pollyanna (version 2)
Eleanor H. PORTER (1868 - 1920)

When I try to download the zip file, the cover art, or the cd case insert pdf, I get a blocked malicious site message for all three.

As an example, (despite the jpg displaying on the catalog page) trying to view the jpg of the cover art forwards to this:
moz-extension://befa9f3c-895b-494a-856f-58b595e8f9f3/content/ui/blockedPage.html?originalURL=http://ia800300.us.archive.org/15/items ... =malicious

and the message is this:
BLOCKED BY

As I already said, I have successfully downloaded other audio books from the LibriVox site, before and after this page, including another book by the same reader. Each time I recheck this page however the error remains.

My Operating System is Windows 7
My Virus checker is Norton and reports as currently up to date.
My web browser was Firefox 56.0 (64 bit)

To be thorough I have also checked the page using Chrome 62.0.3202.94 (64 bit) and get the same Norton warning.
And a few days later Firefox updated to the new Firefox Quantum 57.0 (64-bit) and I still get the same Norton warning.


For whatever reason, Norton thinks that the links from this particular catalog page are malicious.

This has happened before. The files themselves are all OK; it's because the antivirus software finds something on the same server (http://ia800300.us.archive.org) that it thinks is malicious.

You can safely bypass that warning, or wait until it clears itself.

You can safely bypass that warning, or wait until it clears itself.

Will it clear itself, if someone doesn't file a ticket with Norton to remove the server from their blacklist?

[TriciaG]

That is a good question. I don't know.

[knotyouraveragejo]

Yes, in my experience, it usually does. I have never filed a ticket with Norton.

Archive occasionally results in these warnings because there is so much stuff on their servers.
As I know that the librivox stuff is fine I just "ignore the warning and proceed".
