Not getting any errors or issues. Things are running fine.

I just got a warning from my browser saying there are threats on the site...first times its happened for me.

 

[DocHollywood]

trojan.webkit!

 

[AdmiralLongDong]

Yeah I get the warnings. i'm on safari on a mac.

 

[arkailija]

Yeah, has happened several times for me.

Keep your virus scanners etc., on, make sure your browser(s) are up to date.

Got a warning today about threats on the site, but iqnored them and came in anyway. So dangerous!

 

[Starks]

Me too. Browser and antivirus.

Working on it now

Certain browsers alert you while others might. There are options in firefox to block websites that were reported as malicious (it's in tools>options>security) and chrome does the same as well.


If you google "mattersofsize" it should display "This site may harm your computer.".

This is something google does on their own: http://www.google.com/interstitial?url=http://mattersofsize.com/forum/ & http://www.google.com/safebrowsing/diagnostic?site=http://mattersofsize.com/forum/&hl=en


I'm using nod32 SS, but anyone can download comodo firewall for free. Last time I used it it seemed kind of cumbersome. I mainly used it for blocking ip-ranges a few years so I don't know how well it does with attacks. I couldn't tell you how good it is, but it's definitely not shitty. Not sure about false positives.

delete

Delete what?? There was no option to perform such an action.

It was a duplicate post from what I posted above. Seems my comment was posted, but I refreshed and didn't see it. I rewrote the comment and realized it was just lag, so I deleted my other post (the delete) when I seen that the other one got posted. Wish I could had deleted it :blush:



EDIT: Sorry, that was a reference to my forum post. Not that you should delete anything from your PC. If you have an antivirus software it 'should' had got it if it was still an issue at the time of you visiting the forum.

They are still fixing this. They are rescanning site now. They said warnings should be gone soon.

I was wondering if the problem can be coming from the ����� Paradise Forum. Whenever you have free ���� beware!

I may have to agree. Let me hear what the techs say and I will make some decisions then. I can say that there are not viruses on the forum, they said the warnings should due gone soon.

 

[DLD]

Is that why there are so few posts today or were people busy enjoying their Sunday?

Yes, the database error message has been pooping up all day causing traffic to slow. It will be fixed and good as new soon. This happens from time to time because of bad tables or some other weird issue. They are very good and should have repaired very soon.

 

[DLD]

Is everyone still getting errors? Please let me know.

 

[Deleted member 119539]

finally getting on here ok. still getting the chrome warning though

 

[DLD]

Keep checking and responding to this thread. They are working on it still, trying to fix. Let me know what you guys see.

 

[DLD]

Who is still having issues and in what browser are you using?

everytime i go on the site i get the 'malware detected' page (in google chrome). this has been happening for the past week, and sometimes it wont let me get into the site at all. I very much doubt the site is giving me any viruses, so its strange to keep seeing the messages!
