Security Warning

Post by WadeFillingame »

I've gotten several notes from people who are getting a security warning on some posts, or messages, in particular one from zmancbr in the TSBC.  I've looked with both Firefox and Chrome and I'm not getting the note in any of my messages or on the posts.  (I'm running Trend security on my machine here (and windows defender).  

Not sure what's going on.

If anyone is still getting them I will notify the host to see if there is a leak somewhere.

There is a lot of info on the web about incorrect warnings with this function.  Not sure why it's showing up on one poster here or why it's referencing the spurstalk.com site. It's not referencing onlinehumidor.com. I don't see any links or code to it in his posts.

OK, I found the problem.  zmancbr had a link to spurstalk.com in his avatar.  I've changed his acct and removed the avatar.  That should fix it.

I'm a little disappointed that he doen't look around the forum to see any of this discussion about his posts.

I love the fact you couldn't check the forum when you're home sick doing nothing, vs while at work, checking the forum, while, not working.  lol
