Malware

[Lakeside2016]

Anyone else getting a warning that ECCIE has a Malware issue? Got it yesterday, but taking a chance today. I also posted in the Men Only section, but some of you don't have premium.

google chrome has had that type of issue for a long time and most of it is the scammers. I have had things pop-up when using chrome that tell me I have malware or porn was detected. The latest one told me my antivirus protection had expired. I closed all the windows I had opened and checked my security suite where that told me I had 6 months left.

I had it for a couple of days and now it's gone - I just figured there is so much shit flowing through these Interwebs that everything/everybody gets hit eventually.

I haven't received any malware messages on eccie using Firefox, but I'm getting this message when I try to go to STG. I use Express VPN as a proxy server. Here's the message I get:

"We have been having distributed denial of service attacks done against our site on a regular basis. If you are seeing this message, you may be trying to connect to the site on a proxy/tor/vpn node that has attacked the site in the recent past. Please wait a few seconds and then try to refresh the page, if you still get this message, please try to connect through another vpn node."

Anyone else having this issue?
