Can others edit my Photos
Photos OK to edit
I've been browsing this site for about an hour this morning, and all of the sudden Fire Fox is blocking the pages I'm trying to get to saying this page is listed as an attack page. I hit ignore and try other threads, and the same warning pops up.
I had to disable the warning in the security area in tools for fire fox.
Has anyone else experienced this issue? :confused:
 
Someone else has thread about this. I havent had a single warning or problem. Im using IE though.
 
same here, i got google chrome. I cant get to the pages unless i agree with google the site is not safe...
 
Just got the same thing...:confused: I read the details and said that in the past days 14 trojans attacks were coming from the forum and 2 were successful (according to the Google information page, I run on Chrome, not FireFox).

I guess some funny hacker thought it would be an easy window to access a lot of computers. I'll keep my antivirus updated just in case.

I'm not leaving TPF for that! no sir!
 
Yes if you look at the bottom page link transfer progress thingy..... it wasn't loading from photo forum but from some cache2.admonkey something er other. Technically speaking. I stopped using Mozilla works just fine with IE.
 
It's solved in Firefox by clicking into internet options,under the security tab uncheck the "block the reported attack site" and ok.
If you have a Firewall/anti virus,i wouldnt worry,its just to prevent you from getting viruses,like a "wet paint" sign :)
 
I trust virus software as much as mixing birth control and booze on a daily basis.

This could be why I have three kids :P

this works and thank you but this is a twmporary fix, no? Will the site correct this issue?
 
theres alot of sites with viruses ect,Facebook is one that has tonnes,so i wouldnt worry about it too much,keep your firewall up and a decent anti virus and you'll be fine. nothing's 100% safe,and theres some that are smart and figure a way into your pc.if it happens,make sure your backed up
 
I had the same thing thought i had been banned :lol:
 
I have the same issue. I use Avast Antivirus which has always been ok. I am browsing in Chrome...how do I stop the warning coming up?

Has any Admin said anything about these problems?
 
I've gotten viruses/malware alerts from this site before. I think it comes from the various ads TPF runs. I don't think TPF screens them aggressively enough, but I can't really say and I don't think the mods have ever commented directly on threads like this so there's no way to know.
 
BTW, all you people who go to the site flagged as malware/unsafe even though you've been warned...?

YOU people are why the world is FULL of viruses. The virus industry thanks you.
