Hi Akeeba Support :)

I am using BreezingForms and I am trying to export some forms.

Suddenly I get the below warning. I contacted Crosstec support and they say, that it might be the Akeeba Admin Tools that is responsible for generating the below warning.

So - for testing purposes I deinstalled Admin Tools and Akeeba Backup. But the warning is still displayed.

I know this might be somewhat stupid question, but is there a chance that some scripts etc. might not be removed?

(Be aware that I also contacted Crosstec and RockeTheme with the same issue).

Hello,

No, this message is not coming from Admin Tools.
Admin tools will only display a cryptic 403 error to the attacker, more details are inside the log page or in the log file.
However, since you completely uninstalled our software, there's no way it could generate an error like that.

For what is worth, this message seems to come from Breezing forms component.
