I can not address the issue of whether this is a protected web site or not. The IT staff would have to answer that. I can tell you that we have had posts here from other members discussing this alert from McAffee virus checkers that say that this site is unsafe. I believe that it resulted from an old issue between this server and McAffee's software. These issues usually revolve around the site advertisements.
I can tell you, however, that I haven't seen any recent posts from members complaining about any virus on this site. When it had happened in the past the word was spread quite quickly so I'd feel pretty safe in visiting this site if you are concerned.

I have forwarded this post to Christopher Cummings, the site owner, and asked for him to clarify the security of the site.

Answer 3

Hi Reema,

Several months ago we had an issue on the site that caused the McAfee Site Advisor to start showing that error. We fixed the issue immediately, but it seems as though Site Advisor has yet to update their information. The site is protected, and if any issue arises we try to respond to it quickly.

Thanks for being a part of SpanishDict!

I'm also using McAfee SiteAdvisor and you should add this site to "Approved Sites". They really need to change this site to green. I haven't noticed any "breached browser security" issues.
