Malware Warnings

Post by clapton is god » Mon Apr 04, 2011 8:47 am

I'm getting a lot of malware warnings related to avatarwizard.com this morning. I guess someone has got a new avatar from them and my browser (Chrome on a iMac) doesn't like it.

Yeah. I'm getting them too; also on Chrome.
I've not been able to pinpoint whose avatar it is yet but I'll sort it out when I do. :)

I'm sure the perpetrator will come forward of their own accord and issue a formal apology. Either that or I'll save it for my autobiography. :wink:

Went off while I was on it, while changing from Board Index. About ten mins before I called.
