"Attention! Your web page request has been cancelled." is a fake security warning. It looks just like the legitimate safe browsing warning which you probably have seen if you use Mozilla Firefox.
Fake "Attention! Your web page request has been cancelled." warning:
Legitimate "Reported Attack Site" warning:
The fake one pushes rogue anti-virus programs. If you click the "Fix Now" button you will be prompted to download or install a fake anti-virus program. The legitimate one doesn't promote any security software at all. It simply states that the website you're about to visit is currently listed as suspicious. Please note the differences between these two security warnings. If you see the Attention! Your web page request has been cancelled. warning, be sure that it's a fake one and that your computer is infected with some sort of malware, most likely Trojan Horse. Thankfully, there are some free anti-malware applications that you may use to remove malware. You should scan your PC with at least two anti-malware programs from the list below. Good luck and be safe!
Download at least one anti-malware program from the list below and run a full system scan.
NOTE: before saving the selected program onto your computer, please rename the installer to winlogon.exe or iexplore.exe. With all of these tools, if running Windows 7 or Vista they MUST be run as administrator. Launch the program and follow the prompts. Don't forget to update the installed program before scanning.
