The Web page is accessed with the addresses www.FranklineBranch.com, www.fsbme.com and www.WesternMountainFinancial.com. It has links that take customers to the bank’s FranklineBranch online-banking program, which is located at a different server and requires users to log in, but it does not directly connect with the bank’s external Web page, Thompson said. He said anyone who visited the bank’s Web page Wednesday, April 8, is advised to make sure their virus software is up to date and run a full virus scan. In addition, users should make sure their operating system and applications, such as Adobe Reader and Adobe Flash, are updated.
