Firefox warning about visiting a site that hosts malware

Just imagine, it was a fine morning. You visit your own blog and saw the message, something like in the image above. Could there be anything more disgusting?

“The website appears to host malware software that can hurt your computer or otherwise operate without your consent. Just visiting a site that hosts malware can infect your computer.

And, see the language – how harsh it is. Imagine the feelings of your visitors who saw this message. No doubt, they will be more frightened than you.

The adverse effect of malware infection does not just end here. The Google bots are constantly crawling your site. What happens when they find your site is hosting malware? It really takes a long time to recover in SERP position even after you clean up your blog.

I know, you did not host any malicious software in your website nor will allow anybody else. How did this happen? Yes, there are nasty people with smart malicious scripts.

It’s better you prevent it from happening rather than go through a painful process of malware removal.

How can you prevent malware infection?

There are some really nice and intelligent plugins for WordPress to detect and block the infection. I used WordPress Antivirus, WordPress Firewall and Login LockDown plugins.

The first plugin scans your theme files, plugins and core files to warn you of possible loopholes.

The second will block all the attempts to modify core files, theme functions and plugin codes.

The third one will block the user after the specified number of failed log in attempt. So this is effective to avoid brute-force method.

Those plugins were fine as long as I did not discovered BPS Security. Now, I use Bullet Proof Security on my blog which is capable to perform all of the above mentioned prevention, plus a lot more.

BPS Security employs the htaccess method to block the nasty attempts and offers you a number of suggestions regarding making your blog bullet proof. The plugin is highly recommended.

Use Online Malware Scanner Before Installing BPS Security

You can install Bullet Proof Security plugin and tighten your latches now, if your blog is fresh installed and free from any possible illness. However, if your blog is already popular and you ran it for so long without security plugins, you are strongly suggested to use online malware scanner.

I use Sucuri most often. It’s truly a good service.

Sucuri has three different plans, Power Plan for up to 5 sites, Premium for one site and Free for basic scan.
