Malware warnings
Just thought I would mention it.
I have just started getting malware warnings when I select some topics, none of my pc settings have been changed, and I just wondered if anyone else was getting it, and to make people aware just incase something funny is going on.
Thought it was strange as I never really get them.

Re: Malware warnings
Specific to this forum?
What exactly do the warnings say and is there any pattern as to when they pop up?

Re: Malware warnings
yeah, it's only when I click on a few topics. It's only happened twice so far, but I shall take notice if it happens again and let you know.
It was strange because I looked on one topic, then had a flick around, went back to the same topic and the warning came up.
It's just a general Norton software 'Malware detected - do you wish to proceed - not recommended' type warning. I can send you detailed info if you want it (sorry, work in IT )

Re: Malware warnings
I can assure you there isn't any malware on this forum/on this hosting and it is up to date with latest malware/virus procedures, but as you probably know working in IT, there might be an issue with the coding which is making Norton/other software get suspicious, so I will get this looked into ASAP.
Any info could be helpful, if you wouldn't mind PM'ing it to me that would be great.

Re: Malware warnings
I can't get on quite a few things, I don't have norton and is asking to proced, have done a clean up and still get it, have gone on my internet page and it seems top be working now.
Re: Malware warnings
Will do when it happens again (which it probably won't now! typical!!), just thought I should post it incase something's going on as I've not had it happen before.
Re: Malware warnings
I know what it is - it is to do with the recent facebook implementations. Will have it looked into. For now though, there is nothing to worry about, just make sure you click accept/yes/allow/proceed, until I can stop the messages coming up!
Re: Malware warnings
Facebook eh, who'd have it?!
If you could post when you think it's all fixed I'll let you know if it continues - if that would help any?

Re: Malware warnings

Re: Malware warnings
Have been assured it is just a coding error and will be fixed soon. Sorry, but your computers have been fooled and are lying to you
Re: Malware warnings
That's good - it will help me sort it out!
Now, if you others use google chrome too, I know the problem is specific to people using that...?

Re: Malware warnings
It was happening to my computer as well when I clicked on a topic. I use Google Chrome as well.
Re: Malware warnings
I use I.E.8 and have not had any problems at all!
