Every time I open a note or forward an email to Evernote my virus checker (Bitdefender) alerts me to an untrustworthy web link - https://edpp.co.uk. Looking it up in a separate browser just gets a 403 error. I do have an option to accept this link, but I'm reluctant to do that until I know what it is. Anybody else come across this?

Didn't come across this site myself. The 403 means it is protected against access without proper authetication. This is what a whois-search turned up.

Another thought - wherever the OP was getting that has somebody who is man-in-the-middling. ISPs (and companies) are known to do that. Though they usually wouldn't have untrusty sources.
