    Yes, my guess would be that something in the "weapons" forum is still triggering the virus warning.

    The Weapons section is clear, as is the rest of the site. The block on that section is a function of google (firefox and chrome are both google supported products), that lists reported malware sites. For a short time we had a bad script, but it has been removed, and I have already submitted the site to google for re-review. What's odd is that it's the one section got black-listed and not the whole site. I've gotten a confirmation email from google saying that the block will be removed in a day or two. All is safe now, we just need to get the site out of probation.;)

    Glad to see you back on the boards, Jack. I'm going to start drinking now, and I'll have them forward the bill to you.

    Two years is a great milestone. Congratulations. I'm closing in on my first year next month. Some fun, eh?

    Two years? Dang Jack, it does not seem that long.

    I'm glad Otto got you posting again during your time slot.

    That is the one I'm talking about as well, when I ran my full system scan, it is a High Risk detected by SONAR and put in quarantine showing "suspicious behavior in 4183.tmp". It and the other 38 (medium to low risk) blocked attempts have been directed at my Norton and the Norton check PC programs.

    I don't wish to run anything of this nature.

    That is the puppy I was mentioning in FFZ. My full scan quarantined it as High Risk. I'm not opening it on a bet, I don't care if somebody wants me too!

    it keeps asking if you trust this site tick box, run or cancel,I just cancel,but each time it pops up,usually when clicking on new posts?? I did a scan and trojan found on my laptop,having quarantined it by system clean,this seems to be a result of it,just cant get rid of it popping up,not happening on any other site I go to???...ray..

    Me too, bothersome is all. I just keep ignoring the thing, not even bothering to cancel or click the X. It just shows back up either way whenever a page is opened. ea33.tmp was just detected by my Norton SONAR, and removed.

    I was trying to log on with firefox and it says the site was hacked. Now what is going to happen next? I tried google chrome and it would not let me get far enough to log on. I am using internet explorer at the moment. I don't know if that will stop working or not.

    The site is clean, use the explorer browser until the google supported browsers (chrome, fireox), remove the site from their blocklist.

    Firefox won't even let me on the site. That's probably because of settings in the preferences that protect the user from accessing suspicious sites.

    Chrome still lets me on with no warning, but I expect that will change. At least with Chrome I can override the warning and continue to access the site.

    before this latest episode, I was able to access the site with no warnings whatsoever except for the one weapons forum.

    I wonder if this latest problem is just residue left over from the earlier infection or if the site had been hacked again?
