    Webroot Blocks Access to Formulas and Functions Section

    At work, having a strange issue with an indirect match. Wanted to post, but Webroot is blocking me from accessing the "Excel Formulas and Functions" and the"Excel Charting and Pivots" section pages. I can get to all other sections.

    When I scan both pages using VirusTotal, it shows Fortinet and Google Safebrowsing as reporting malware for "Excel Formulas and Functions":

    https://www.virustotal.com/en/url/6b...1263/analysis/

    And Websense as reporting "suspicious site" for "Excel Charting and Pivots":

    https://www.virustotal.com/en/url/28...is/1450287188/

    Is this already known? Do I need to worry about getting on these pages using my personal laptop?

    We have had problems in the past with websense reporting we are "suspicious". It has never been a problem, it is just a setting
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    That doesn't concern me as much as Google and Fortinet, which are actually putting the "Malware" label on the Formulas and Functions section page.
