What do you mean by "apps infusion request"? Can you give us the exact text?

Sounds like it could be some phishing thing, does it have a red dot to closeit, use that.

I cannot access "apps.infusion.com" as specified. So it may be coming from an ad or an invisible ad.

If apps.infusion.com is not a website you do business with, I suggest you not alow it.

Throw it in yor spam filter, It is probably a phishing site

do you have your pop up on?

I see.

You'll get that prompt if (1) you have "Limit website access to location services ... Prompt for each website once each day" selected in Safari > Preferences > Privacy and (2) the website you are visiting requests your location. The other options for (1) are "... Prompt for each website one time only" and "Deny without prompting" in both Lion (10.7) and Mountain Lion (10.8); for privacy reasons, there is no option to allow without prompting.

It makes sense that the website you were visiting might need your location to provide you with local vendors. If they employ the services of the business technology company names Infusion, that's why the request refers to apps.infusion.com instead of the top-level site you were visiting.

As for why it started suddenly last week, that could be for any of several reasons.

* Did you just start visiting that food service site?

* Maybe the food service site just started using Infusion's services.

* Maybe Infusion just started using Mac OS X services to obtain your location.
