When I try to get into another well know site with photos of trawlers on it (bet yez cannae guess which one!) my AVG goes ape and comes up with "infected site" namely "blackhole exploit kit (type2133)" and "high risk,active threats" and so forth.I'm running Eset as well but it doesn't seem to have a problem with it.Anybody else getting the same thing or is AVG telling me porkies? Never had anything like that on the other site before,or this one come to that...very strange.Just had a look again at AVG and it says it hasnae had any reports of anything nasty on that site during the last 30 days but it's still giving me the same warning about a threat...so where they got that from I don't know...even more puzzled now...I reckon it must be a false alarm...Davie widnae let nasty sneaky wee viruses ontae his site,he would have them banned afore ye could wink an eye !!
Some learn by reading,some ask questions,others observe...but there's always one who has to pee on an electric fence for himself.

Cheers lads,I was wondering if AVG were trying a bit of scare mongering as my anti-virus has only a few more days to run and they were wanting me to cough up some mega wonga for a new subscription....naahhh,big companies like them dinnae resort to devious underhand tactics like that to make ye part wi' yer hard earned...sorry for being so cynical....aye right lol
