 * Hello Sajith!
 * What kind of security issues are you getting? Did you receive any notification
   email or is it something you see from your dashboard or through VaultPress?
 * Could you post your site URL here, so I can have a look?
      If you want it to
   remain private, you can also contact us via this contact form: [Contact Support](https://href.li/?https://jetpack.com/contact-support/?rel=support)

 * Even I can not visit
    [https://jetpack.com/support/](https://jetpack.com/support/)
 * The site opens up for some some time. Laer the window automatically changes to
   red color with warning.(How to send screen shot to you?)
 * 1. This is happening only on [https://jetpack.com/support/](https://jetpack.com/support/)
   
   2, In my sites if the jet pack installed. Only after login
 * So I have installed the jet pack from all of my websites

 * Thanks for the screenshots, [@sajith90](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sajith90/)!
 * It looks like you may have a virus or a corrupted browser extension on your machine,
   that loads resources from a third party website, christmasmessage2018.xyz, whenever
   you try to load WordPress.com resources.
 * There isn’t much we can do for you as we cannot replicate this behaviour from
   our end, as it lives in your browser/machine.
 * You way want to run some tests on your browser (such as deactivate all the extensions
   and see how it goes) and/or check for potential virus within your machine.
 * The behaviour you’re seeing is not related with Jetpack, though.
 * Hope that helps! Let me know if that’s clear or if you have any doubts or questions
   about that.

 * No It is connected with jet pack. Some Script or 3rd party script you are using.
 * 1. I have tested in two computer and in both same result.
    2. It happened only
   if jetpack installed and activated. 3. the moment you uninstall the jet pack 
   it disappears. 4. It happened only to the logged users. So unless you logged 
   in it is not happening

    [https://jetpack.com/support/](https://jetpack.com/support/)
 * Same result. after 5 or 10 seconds the window is hijacked by christmasmessage2018.
   xyz
 * Please note that I am getting this issue only with this url now. I am browsing
   100’s of url every day

 * Thanks for providing more info [@sajith90](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sajith90/).
   I can then confirm you that this is not related with Jetpack, as we don’t use
   the `christmasmessage2018.xyz` anywhere in our codebase. The domain was registered
   with Godaddy by someone from Indonesia, and is not used anywhere on WordPress.
   com, Jetpack, Calypso, or VIP sites.
 * If this issue is happening on two different computers, it could be then an issue
   with your router. Can you try checking that from a different network to see if
   it appears again?
 * If you’re having this issue only with this url, it’s possible that the router
   is set to highjack only that domain. By testing this with another network you
   should be able to see if this theory is correct as I think 🙂

 * Finally I found some of the problem. But the issue is with wordpress.com. Whenevever
   I am logged into word press I get the this issue.
    Very simple way is to visit
   [https://kozhikodan.wordpress.com/wp-admin/](https://kozhikodan.wordpress.com/wp-admin/)
 * I think you should be able to visit the site after the login, since you may be
   the super admin

 * We don’t see the issue you mentioned when we visit that page, even in an incognito
   window. Whatever the issue is you’re experiencing, it appears to be restricted
   to your particular setup.
 * Were you able to test this on a different network, as [@erania-pinnera](https://wordpress.org/support/users/erania-pinnera/)
   previously suggested?

 * The issue is resolved now.
 * Remarks
 * You have to login to the dashboard to see this issue. just by visiting the dash
   board we can not see this.
    I tested this in different computers from different
   locations. office and Home.
