[QUOTE="Oldie1950, post: 1076492, member: 94738"] I am not paranoid and will therefore end the matter. I suspect that the host fritz.box ended up on Emsisoft's list of dangerous hosts because AVM, the manufacturer of the Fritz!Box router, which is very popular in Germany, failed to acquire the domain fritz.box for itself. It was purchased by another person who used it to redirect to a website that offered NFTs. This led to confusion because fritz.box usually led to the login page of the Fritz!Box router. In the meantime, there were probably negotiations between this person and AVM, because the website is no longer active. Furthermore, the domain fritz.box on VT is not classified as dangerous by any AV program. I would like to thank all the MT members who gave me advice. [/QUOTE]
