Default Mcafee saying this site is an attack site

Getting errors on every link here on multiple machines running mcafee which say this website is an attack site with malware being loaded. You guys should look into that asap.

Same here, but it's Firefox doing it for me. Avast has said nothing as of yet. What's the deal? It's very annoying, and I want it to go away!!!

I've been getting on this site for 3 yrs now and had no issues until today. Went on today and my virus protection through up all kind of red flags. It's either the Talibans doing or a disgruntled chevy owner.....

On 2nd thought it is just firefox causing the problem. I thought it was mcafee but the warnings are not coming up in IE.

I got it this morning on my home desktop using Firefox. Worked fine at the beginning then after I ex'ed out and forgot to look at something, went back in and clicked on ANY link and it threw up problems.


No issues at work on IE though....

The hosting company that MF uses has their own banner ad's that they recommend for their customers. Those banner ads were infected with malware flash prior to the latest Flash update about 2 weeks ago. Those other malicious sites are linked to MF because of the same hosting company/network.

IE is the only browser working right now. As you can see, IE is really concerned about your safety and security. It has been brought to their attention because there is another thread about this in OT.
