Malware and Threads

Malware and Threads
Hi guys

Just a quick quiz........

Recently our (Zen and mine) Antivirus programs have been throwing up a "Malware detected on this page" warning when we open some of the threads on this board. We both use Google Chrome and are wondering if any other members have had similar experiences.

If so what would you like us to do; if anything at all, other than ignore it?

Cheers
Kichi Tiger

I haven't had any, but I use FF, so who knows. I'm sure Tibbers will be able to tell you what's up. The dude is a walking internet about this stuff.

He sure is Anik. What is FF? Being in Oz (and not a tech savvy as I would like to think I am) I haven't heard of it.

It's short for Firefox, a Mozilla internet browser. I enjoy it.

Ah..Firefox I have heard of and have tried. It doesn't seem to translate well to Australian environments...I have no fardling idea why. Undecided

The best browsers for WINDOWS are as follows:

Maxthon/Opera/Internet Explorer.

As for what's better on Apples or Linux (FF, Chrome, Safari, etc), I don't care personally!

I have experienced this on one of the threads on the recent shootings.
I did a full virus and malware scan afterwards and my computer came up clean.

Lol, IE is the laughingstock of browsers, Danny.

I think Tibbers has taken care of it, please report if something else happens.
