Members Soapsuds Posted December 27, 2011 Members Share Posted December 27, 2011 I kept getting a message about my anti virus blocking a virus everytime I visit SON. Anyone getting the same message? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members alexisfan07 Posted December 27, 2011 Members Share Posted December 27, 2011 I know SOC is said to make people's computers go crazy too. I'm not sure, my Mac rarely registers viruses haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soapsuds Posted January 12, 2012 Author Members Share Posted January 12, 2012 I guess no one is fixing this virus. Just lost my desktop last night because of this virus. I'm sure SON wont pay to fix my computer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted January 12, 2012 Members Share Posted January 12, 2012 I'm very disappointed nothing has been done about this, no response from Errol at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Webmaster Errol Posted January 20, 2012 Webmaster Share Posted January 20, 2012 The server has been checked and re-checked and we do not have a virus. However, the only way the site would play any role in a possible virus would be via an advertisement via our advertisers systems. Is there any particular ad that was on display when your virus program kicked in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted January 20, 2012 Author Members Share Posted January 20, 2012 Well dragonflies emailed me that her laptop went down cause of the virus. She asked if the virus was still here. I told her yes. I got message the other night saying this site wasn't safe and took me off it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted January 20, 2012 Members Share Posted January 20, 2012 Errol it has to be an ad causing it. The same thing happened at SOC, it was ads causing trojan viruses. I'd be checking with the companies who provide ads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmaster Errol Posted January 20, 2012 Webmaster Share Posted January 20, 2012 I'm going to be evaluating our advertising networks over the weekend. There is one that I'll be removing from the message boards completely. The only ad network that should be appearing on the site beginning Monday should be one from Google. If you find issues on the boards after Monday, please let me know immediately. Additionally, I want to apologize to anyone who may have been or has already been inconvenienced by this matter.
