Dear all,

I was trying to access the Egyptian Postal Office website when I started getting all sorts of alerts from my firewall and other security software, alerting me that the site is suspicious and distributes malicious software by trying to install codes on my machine!

I was wondering if any of you knows how to get this important information to their Webmaster to take proper security action rather than infecting unsuspecting users with such malicious software.

Please "DO NOT visit the site or the other domains listed below" as you might harm your computer if you don't have proper security protection.

Below is one of the warning reports that I got intended for IT security experts who can help fix the site and take proper action to infect the site, feel free to forward to their Webmaster if you know how:

Safe Browsing Diagnostic page for www.egyptpost.org/en/

computer.

Part of this site was listed for suspicious activity 1 time(s) over the past 90 days.

Yes, this site has hosted malicious software over the past 90 days. It
infected 1 domain(s), including egypt.gov.eg

How did this happen?
In some cases, third parties can add malicious code to legitimate sites, which would cause us to show the warning message.
