This Malware warning occurs when going to page 3 of the "What is Crossdressing - Really " Thread in the CrossDressers, Crossdresser, CD section.

Wonder if anyone else is seeing the message.

Thanks,


Opal

Opal....

Honey,I just went there and didn't see any links or pictures which generally are where malware hides...
I also scanned it using an anti-malware program...

What program are you using that picked that up?

That's what I was thinking. There's no pics or links to a pdf file as an example. I'm not doubting Opal, I believe she is receiving a warning from her anti-virus program. I'm just wondering what set it off. It could be a false positive.

I am using Google Chrome browser. The message refers to "smallstreamsalmonfishing.com"

as the malware source. This is the first time I have seen a message like that, and thought I ought to say something, but maybe it is just my particular setup.

I have seen the same warning when using chrome. There must be some link to a page on that site on that thread. Google has a list of dangerous sites, and that site is on the list. The thread is probably safe though.

agreed.
i use chrome as well, and have came across that same warning a few times. The thread is most likely safe, but there may be a link Google has tagged as dangerous in the thread.

Interesting....

I use Firefox....

so it must be something in Chrome that picks it up...

I will try logging out, and logging back in with Firefox. Thank you all, was the first time I had ever seen the warning appear. Thought it would be better to be safe than sorry.

Huggs,

Hi !

I am in Firefox now, and not receiving the warning. I went to a mode in Firefox that would display all the HTML commands and such and found that the avatar of one of the posters refers to the smallstreamsalmonfishing.com site


Firefox is a lot slower for me (being on dialup does not help) so going back to Google Chrome

Thanks everyone!

Huggs,


Opal

The browser doesn't matter too much. I prefer Firefox. Internet Explorer has too many bugs and security issues. I don't like the new interface either. I use Chrome occasionally. Not that much.

I cannot repeat the issue even using Chrome, and if I visit the site in question, in chrome, nothing is reported.
