I've had a report tonight of a malware message when accessing the board. I was not able to replicate this from either of my two systems (I have a Dell laptop running Windows Vista and a desktop running XP). But, that does NOT mean I shouldn't be concerned - there may be something my systems are missing. If you get a warning here's how to contact me:
Get on Twitter and find me xBarryxAllenx
Or, e-mail me at ed1jr@hotmail.com
Thanks!
EDIT: In checking out the ProBoards forums I found that there was a note about an ad that was creating malware alerts. Hopefully that's all there it - just the ad that's the problem, and if so they should be able to isolate that ad soon. That would explain why I didn't get the alert, as the ads randomly appear.
Just one additional note - I don't get any ad revenue from this site, and neither did the original operators of this forum, either. The ads are placed by ProBoards, and they are what keeps this forum free for everyone. Still, we don't need ads that could cause problems for our members, so hopefully this will be addressed quickly. Thanks for your understanding!
