getting a virus warning as I log in to BF.

I had a weird experience with "recent posts." I knew for certain there were posts AFTER the ones displayed. Wondered if it was a site error.

I'm having the same thing, just checked my recent posts and a bunch aren't listed, but when I go directly to the thread they are there. Also got the big warning just now, "This is an attack page!" Was tough to get back on. I run Firefox with AVG.
 
I pretty well got the same message as Cougar got on post #49.
Cannot reach Bladeforums at all.
Got it running Firefox and Google, but switched to IE and went to these forums straight-away.

I run Mcafee.
 
I just got this for the first time-Google Chrome.

My virus program (F-Secure) stopped , and removed , Exploit.SWF.Downloader.Y .

I was using IE8 , first i was prompted to install a program , I declined, then my virus program,
jumped in and did it´s thing.

Google chrome and Firefox warned me, IE8 would probably have been infected if my
virus program hadn't stopped it .

Same same, multiple warnings and the inability to even log in with FF. Something is amiss.
 
Banners have been disabled at this time.

GOOGLE HAS TEMPORARILY LISTED BFC AS A THREAT SITE. We're working on getting that removed, don't report it.

Now that banners are disabled, are you guys still getting virus messages?
 
yes...

Hey, be verbose. What message are you getting?
 
Getting it on multiple computers.

All running Firefox. Some use Kaspersky, some Norton, Anti-Malwarebytes also.
 
You are still getting virus warnings with banners turned off? Without any banners being displayed?
 
Spark, my Firefox is reporting a "Potential Attack Site" when I try to log in... Don't know if that helps. If I go to TOOLS, OPTIONS, SECURITY, and then click on disable BLOCK REPORTED ATTACK SITES, I have no dramas. Otherwise, I can't get on the forum.
 
PLEASE DON'T TELL ME THE GOOGLE WARNING. I appreciate that you are trying to help, but I'm looking for specific threats from Avast, or antivirus programs.

Google has put the attack site page up for all chrome users, you'll see that until they can review the site again.
