I get a message when I try to log onto this site that says it is a malware site. I use a Mac and it is supposedly immune from these, true?

 

Weird I visit that site as much as this site and have never had any issues or alerts.

 

They probley just a security certificate expired or something..........Never had a problem before.......

 

Just logged in no problem on my mac. Don't think Mac's are immune to Malware fyi. They just weren't as popular as PCs when virus and malware were being created so people didn't target Macs as much.

With their popularity increasing, just be careful what you browse.

 

Lot of people are having trouble with that site and it shows in the reduced traffic over there. From what I understand it's going thru some issues with its host server. Something on it sends the phishing filter on my work PC crazy, but I've never gotten warnings about malware or anything.

 

Malware messages like that don't come from your OS, they come from your browser.

What browser are you using? It's probably accessing a database that's a bit confused.

This sort of thing can happen at any time, without the site operator having any knowledge of it. Got one of these on an audio site I frequent, couple weeks back. It suddenly shows, scanning your computer for viruses. To late, as it already installed some, and you need to buy their software, to wipe it out. I've learned to clone my hard drive to a second one, for when this happens. I contacted the audio site admin, and he took care of the problem. Haven't tried it myself, but heard the "malwarebytes.com" software is pretty good at detecting this stuff.

 

No problems here. The Hot Chick Picture thread is loud and clear.

 

Must be solar flares or something, I can't even get on it.
