Post by: Den on June 22, 2010, 14:24:52 PM: It works for me ... but literally a 2nd after opening the site Avast popped up with "Trojan horse, thread has been detected" :shocked: I've not got anything downloading or open except for Purrs and Facebook so it must have been the website.

Post by: Den on June 22, 2010, 15:09:12 PM: Sorry JS - but I have to warn people about clicking on that website now.

I seem to have a virus which I can't get rid of and the only connection is clicking on the website :scared:

Post by: JackSpratt on June 22, 2010, 15:33:35 PM: Oh Den, I'm so sorry....

NO MORE TESTS, THANKS!! :shy:

It must be the Freewebs site but I've no idea how to remedy it.

Mark, that's a good idea. Will talk to Nicky about it. :)

Post by: Mark on June 22, 2010, 16:33:34 PM: There is a link on CatChat - maybe an idea to disable it?

was the webs.com site a previous one? (as opposed to freewebs one)

Post by: hOrZa on June 22, 2010, 18:42:29 PM: I don't think the site is any threat myself, probably a false positive from the anti-virus, maybe a tracker cookie from the free web hosting service.

hth

Google checker doesn't like it,

http://www.google.com/safebrowsing/diagnostic?site=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.freewebs.com%2Fblackpoolcatsincare%2F

it is very likely the hosting site or ad's on the page though

Mark, it's been Freewebs since I made it three years ago. ;)

Post by: JackSpratt on June 22, 2010, 23:48:27 PM: Thanks Rob. Do you reckon an email to them would be wise?
Title: Re: Can people test the Blackpool Cats in Care site?
Post by: hOrZa on June 23, 2010, 08:04:29 AM: can't hurt, but I would move my site somewhere else.
