Every time I visit the BreitlingSource website my Norton's antivirus goes off and say's that it has blocked an attack by a mass injection website. Bsource is the only site that has been giving me this issue, is anyone else experiencing this, and if so what does it mean?

Never had any issues, but not using Norton. Might be worth contacting admin with the details and see if he can find anything in the logs that indicates a problem.

One of my laptops uses Norton and I've never noticed a problem with it.

I know what Serge means though. Awhile back I logged onto TRF and I started to get some sort of Java Script screen and then right then I knew it was something malicious. I immediately turned off my computer.

Try a better A-virus program? Kaspersky Lab or bitdefender is top rated for the OS i'm using.
Norton is much better than it used to be, but I dumped free McAfee for not catching virus' before they run, and inability to get rid of them without IT support from India, at an additional cost. Norton is famous for sucking your system's resources dry.

Me neither. I use a combo of Trend Micro Titanium and Malwarebytes.

I use Microsoft Security Essentials. Seems to work well enough. Plus, its free.

I've seen this too but with Google Chrome's Malware Protection enabled. It indicates a tracking cookie from a watch magazine site I've never heard of. It only does it occasionally as well. Maybe related to an advertisement/vendor?
