Attack warning from firefox...

I logged on this a.m. only to find Firefox telling me that this site was reported as an attack site yesterday. Somebody may have attached some malware somewhere, I'm not sure. Just thought I'd give you guys a heads up....just in case.

That's what I did too, Jeep...Now, I'm wondering if it was a good idea...I've been coming here for quite awhile and haven't had any problems. Hopefully dascrow or Bruce or somebody? will get to the bottom of it. I love this site.

i thank you all for reporting this. and for those that have sent me PM's about this as well. I just logged in for the first time today and neither IE8 or google chrome gave me a warning. but i know the type of message you got, I have gotten them too before on some websites.

There was a problem, on another forum I am on, where somehow, through one of the google adsense ads at the top of the forum, there was malmare that was using a hole in a previous version of flash player to download to your computer through that loophole in flash, through a flashed based ad. It happened to my personal computer 3 times before it was discovered why, and once i updated to the newest version of flash, it didnt happen again. I had to reboot my computer from the previous days settings to get rid of it.

So be smart while navigating, feel free to report anything that looks unusual. There are some great and free adware and malware scanning programs out there. And in the small chance you do become effected, let me know, there are pretty safe and easy ways to get around malware.

Thanks all,
Blueline
