Symantec Corporate A/V has no problem with a test download of the B&N ebook converter package. (Downloads come from Softpedia, which is a reputable repository who checks stuff on their end.)

I don't have any commercial offerings at hand to test the conversion on, but I'm not especially concerned about simply visiting the site.

Does Norton IS give any details of why it thinks the site is suspicious?

I guess I should have given a bit more info' rather than a bald post.

As the poster did not give details I googled *E-book-converter*
Of the hits it returned I checked the top of the hits & most likely *brothersoft* free download one which popped up the Norton safeweb warning. Google gave no warning.
Obviously this may not be the site you refer to. But it is at the top of the Google hits.

Full details of the Norton warning Here
