....appears to be no mention at flightsim.com or another forum so far strange .

I take that back , only just appeared at SOH this morning , mention of this threat and warning .

I am not seeing this in Palemoon, nor did it come up in my daughter's IE when I was down there this past week.

Everything working ok for me this morning, and was fine late yesterday afternoon.

Ive read the threads at SOH and CalClassic, and i have to say, ive had no problems accessing FlightSim.com several times per day in the last week, including uploading a file to there, as Ian mentioned earlier.
It is mentioned in the threads that Mozilla Firefox is returning a false-positve about the site.
I use Firefox, and have had no such message at any time, nor has Symantec's Norton-360 V6 found anything wrong with the site.
Go figure....... ?????

Lawrie,

The 'offending' content is AlisterC's signature image, as it points to phoenixva.org.
This will happen from time to time, but I guess that most problems stem from advertising. Since most sites don't control the advertising which they display, it's easy for a squeaky-clean site to get flagged this way.

I was getting the message on my previous PC but I've just upgraded to a new one and I'm not getting the message, still using Firefox and with the same antivirus installed.

Latest version firefox beta fixed issue, something to do with google.
