I use Norton 2008 (or something /stupid) and I have been getting repeated 'attacks' from a website called www.airtransat.com .

I my 'Alert Summary' it says...

Threat: Medium
Title: An intrusion attempt by www.airtransat.com was blocked.
Date and Time: Blah blah...

So... what's up?\

Also, it said the risk name was... 'HTTP Embeded Tag NPDSplay DLL BO'
and that the attacking computer was 'www.airtransat.com (306.83.33.16, 80)***'

I'm kinda scared and kinda worried...

edit: ***may be 206 not 306

Well, airtransat.com is a Canadian airline company. From what you posted here, it sounds like you may be getting a false positive from the Norton "internet security" if the site is trying to serve a cookie on your machine or one of the ads on the site is.

206.83.33.16, 80, is just the IP and port used of the site in question basically.
