AVG I think is detecting something. (another user reports) Could be a false positive. My own antivirus is not reporting anything.

I removed the you-tube video embed add-on last night which I think uses iframes.

running the site url through AVG website checker shows safe:

That might be because my AVG removed them, not sure how these things work.

Almost every time I open the Forum site I get a Malware message to say that "a threat has been detected".

Norton is picking one up too - "BLACKHOLE TOOLKIT WEBSITE 20" from URL 149.47.121.160, 80.

I'm assure this will be fixed today. There will be down-time during the process too.

I have not had any issues, Norton 360 on auto update. But I do tend to get the problem of my router blocking the website? I have to reset or turn my WiFi of and on to get a reallocation ..... and access back again from time to time? Only this website for some reason....any ideas?

Not sure about that one Griff, That's a new one on me. Very strange. I do have to reset mine maybe once a week on average but its random.

Me too! I thought it was Ebay causing the problem.

Fingers crossed it's sorted now.

Anyone in a position to help ? long distance of course ??

For the past two or three days, I have been having trouble staying connected to any site, whether it be ebay or the forum ?

I use Google Chrome as my search engine and after connecting to a site, if I'm lucky I might change two or three pages and then I'm on my own.....

As an example, I have just logged on to the forum, I replied to a PM and clicked back to the forum home page, I then read Ry's comment about a badge and tried to reply, when I hit the ' submit reply ' button, I was presented with a white page for about 20 seconds before a pop-up box from Google Chrome appeared informing me that it couldn't find the forum ??????? I had to reconnect to reply to Ry's post.

Have I confused anyone or does someone know what I should do ????

Thanks in advance.

Dave.
