Thank you, bob123!   While I was researching which wallet to download and install, I had read about people who had downloaded a "fake" Electrum and getting stuck with malware, so I made certain that I downloaded from https://electrum.org/#download.  I also used the DigiCert tool to check the signature.

And thank you for explaining to me that people do not try to "deposit" satoshis into a wallet in the traditional way that someone would deposit money into a bank account.

And thank you Abdussamad for telling me that I must also whitelist Port 50002!  If you hadn't pointed that out, I would have whitelisted only the "attacking" computer and URL, and I would have been back on this forum asking for help figuring out why Norton was still blocking the "attacking" computer/URL.

After years of contemplating bitcoin, yesterday was the first time I ever set up a wallet.  I remember about 10 years ago that I was hearing about this new decentralized and anonymous way to "bank" and manage "money".  I was going to purchase $100 worth of bitcoin just for the heck of it, but I couldn't really devote enough time to figure out how to do it.  And I kick myself now for not MAKING enough time to figure out how to purchase or earn bitcoin because I would have had just over $9 million!  My "timing" on many things has always been "off", so I wouldn't be surprised if the exchange value of bitcoin tanked the day after I actually made a purchase!  Oh well, that's life!

Awesome!  Thanks again for your help and words of wisdom!  I really appreciate it!

Enjoy your  holiday and have a Happy, Healthy 2021!

Thank you very much for your response!

So just to be clear, you are saying that it's OK for me to whitelist the warning from Norton and allow "electrum.hodlister.co 58.89.2.21, 50002" to bypass Norton?

Thanks again for your response.  I really appreciate it and wish health and happiness to you and your family.

Hey Everyone,

Sorry to ask this, but I already searched this forum and Google and I cannot find an answer, so I'm hoping someone can help.

I am VERY new to bitcoin.  In fact, I signed up and created an Electrum 4.0.9 wallet only today.  Before I added any of money to my wallet, I wanted to see if I could earn some online.   I found a website called www.faucet.bet that pays you satoshis for watching ads, taking surveys, etc.  I earned a whopping BTC 0.00000028 from that website.  I guess I shouldn't be sarcastic because BTC0.00000028 is A LOT more than I had yesterday or even this morning!!  

I'm pretty certain I have my Electrum wallet set up correctly and that I provided the correct info to faucet.bet.  However, I've recently begun receiving "High Risk" alerts from Norton 360 (2021) that indicate that "An intrusion attempt by electrum.hodlister.co was blocked."  The attacking computer/URL/source address is "electrum.hodlister.co 58.89.2.21, 50002."  The IPS Alert Name is "System Infected: Coinminer Activity 16" and the Traffic Description is listed as "TCP, Port 50002".  I also get the following message:  "Network traffic from https://electrum.hodlister.co matches the signature of a known attack.  The attack was resulted from \DEVICE\HARDDISKVOLUME5\PROGRAM FILES (X86)\ELECTRUM\ELECTRUM-4.0.9.EXE.  To stop being notified for this type of traffic, in the Actions panel, click Stop Notifying Me. "

My question is this:  Am I correct in continuing to block this "intrusion attempt" or is the intrusion attempt actually Faucet.bet trying to deposit the satoshis I earned on its website into my wallet?

And thank you SO MUCH for taking the time to answer my question!
