getting a virus warning as I log in to BF.

All I had to do is confirm that BFC was a safe site and I don't get the warning any more. I wonder if it was just an attempt at revenge from this guy

Yes, that is the generic Google attack message. Thank you, we're aware of it.

Getting this standard warning. Ig I try to ignore and continue, I am stuck in the inability to log in.

I am running Firefox and ARO anti-virus. My pc will NOT let me open a page. My iPhone is working normally. Sorry I can't offer more help but I am IT challenged.

In the bottom right corner it says "Ignore this warning" that will get you going if you trust the site

Using Mac and Safari.

There is no "ignore" button to make the warnings go away, and the warning pops up with every single page view. My Bladeforums experience looks to be over until this is solved.

Firefox is using Google's blocking feature to distribute the same warnings.

Is anyone using IE still getting the virus messages from their antivirus software?

Just copy and paste bladeforums URL into the address box and it will over ride the warning page.

Thanks for the info on the Mac / Safari issue, LA

I just checked in IE9 64 bit and not a thing from my AV (avast)

 

[CrimsonTideShooter]

I came here to report the same badware message that everyone else is getting.

I'm on Firefox.

Norton is still sending errors every time I visit BF. It says that malicous software is attempting to download. Norton gives an IP address of where the attack is comming from. Using WHOIS website to trace the IP address is shows up as Baku Azerbaijan. That doesn't seem to inspire confidence.

You must not have seen what I wrote above the pic...

Unfortunately, this didn't work.

Have to get a christmas tree, I'll be back later tonight to see if things have changed.

In Firefox, you can click on Tools, then options. Click the security tab, and uncheck "Block reported attack sites". I wouldn't advise going to sites you're unfamiliar with though. My IE still shows the warning. I have Avast. Not that I ever use IE, just sayin'...

 

[cricketdave]

Yeah it didn't work for me either, with safari on a mac. still get the malware warning.

YES. I am still getting a virus warning from my AVAST.
I am running Firefox with Avast and Comodo firewall
I clear all cookies each time I shut down Firefox.
I have now shut down Firefox 3 times, each time clearing all cookies.
I am still getting the following message from my AVAST antivirus each time I hit the log in screen.

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 .

That happened again ^

Ok, so you people with premium memberships / mods like knarf - are you seeing the warnings after you log in? Or only before you log in?
