I think the safe browsing thing is one of the things this plugin that I've just re-installed does... but I'm seriously considering dumping Kaspersky now judging by what I'm reading... the address that's having the lookup fail is to do with Kaspersky 'injecting' javascript into every webpage... which a comment on the site I'm reading says is basically a black hat hacker's wet dream... that if a hacker organisation targets Kaspersky they could take control and inject anything and no-one would be any the wiser of the source because Kaspersky is so widely used. If I view the source of this page I can see the same kaspersky address as the looking up bit, right there embedded in the code. Scary stuff.
