Windows XP Pro + all updates

Microsoft Security Essentials 2.1.1116.0 has all the sudden started blocking, what I believe to be, valid emails. These are emails that it never blocked before. I've never received this many blocks (in the past...1 or 2 per Month) These emails are from, it seems if I recall over the last 2 days, from the same sites: "Dr. Mercola" "SPORTSMAN'S GUIDE SPECIALS" "TigerDirect.com" "CircuitCity.com" ...These are in my inbox now, so there might have been more.

 

Do you think these are really bad emails? Have the sites been hacked? Is my system causing this? or Is MSSE having an issue with these sites that's really not an issue? ....FALSE Positive?

I've scanned my drives with MMSE, Bit Defender Online, Trendnet Online, Spybot S&D, and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware. Only one issue, 'Coupon Bar'...That's used to print coupons.

 

Any Ideas?

 

Thanks Much,

Chris
