Viruses from this forum?

[Zerg83]

How come when I go through this forum now days, my anti-virus tells me I get a virus? I mean, I heal it right away, but still what the heck? This has happened a few times

Little-Cheeze has had the same problems recently; I don't know what to tell you.

 

[Amantis]

Bring this up to the administration?

Chris already talked to Cheeze about it, he said just don't worry and let the virus protection deal with it.

That is a terrible solution...

i think the admin put up a fucked advertisement

That is a terrible solution...

I also suggested him to clear his cookies (the file was inside his Temp Internet folder). There isn't much we can suggest to do until we know which ad and/or javascript file that is responsible.

Yes. This place is a virus.

 

[ChrisH36]

Yet people still come to this site.

If it were a problem at battleforums.com I would expect more people to have complained!?

Perhaps some additional information will help us track down the problem.

such as;

> On which page(s) this problem occurs.
> The specific error you receive.
> Make & version of your anti-virus software.

EDIT: OK - read the other thread - Do all the people having problems use AVG? if so what versions please and post specific errors here along with the page(s) they appear on. Also tell us what ads appear on the pages where the problem occurs.

If it is a problem here - lets track it down.

No wonder, I told you all - we need the old admins.

Zerg83 are you using AVG? (just to make sure that it is not AVG).

It's quite possible BF to have viruses, probably minor ones.

There's nout wrong with this new admin thank you! :wacko:

I doubt it's any of our ads - they'll all images - no JS.

Looking into this ...

 

[MGCImtR]

We still haven't seen you, i meant kinkarso.

 

[coRtALoS]

coRt may be referring to the fact that the D3 skin doesn't have any ad code in it?

Seriously guys, switch to the D3 skin and see if it keeps coming up.

 

[Metal Gear Flash]

i got the same alert twice on separate occasions

i dont remember if it was avg or one of the other 100 programs i have to prevent these things...next time it pops up ill screenshot it.
