Title: Malware warning on following link to forum notification
Post by: Shillas on April 15, 2018, 09:20:59 AM

Hi all,  I've been getting this warning when clicking on the email link to new notifications of forum posts.

Has anybody else been getting them?

Doesn't appear to be a problem from scans,  just annoying.

My security settings too high?

Cheers

It appears to be the Microsoft forced marketing pop up....they want everyone on to web based Office 365....at a recent contract could not open heaps of Office files with similar messages, has something to do with removal of backwards compatability to like Office 2013 etc. being removed...does not appear to be a Malware warning

Problem solvered.  :like

Opened the other email app on my phone, told it I didn't want to use outlook as default.

Outlook then allowed me to download emails from my account to that app, clicked on the ozstoc link to a reply, opened straight away.

Deleted outlook app  :cuss from my phone
