Hi,

So I decided to check which MBL hits there were today, and it seems
they're now blocking https://bit.ly

$ sigtool --find-sigs MBL_6913896 |sigtool --decode-sigs
VIRUS NAME: MBL_6913896
TARGET TYPE: ANY FILE
OFFSET: *
DECODED SIGNATURE:
https://bit.ly

I'm beginning to think I've made a mistake with this vendor...
