| If it's AVG I wouldn't be surprised if it's a false positive, effing thing. |

| I've never seen it do it before, and it pulling the same warning on 3 different browsers but only for this site. Odd and annoying. |

| Does it give any clues as to what it was? I did change one of the adZones last night, but majority are pulled from GoogleAds, so I wouldn't expect anything nefarious. |

No, If you click for 'more info', it launched two warning boxes one not in the screen grab, it just directs to a generic AVG webpage explaining what phishing is.
It's actually stopped doing it now too. |

| AAhh that AVG sh1t, I hate it! When that ad/spyware gets automatically added to your system and then you get non-stop warnings that you have a virus ARGH! Does my head in |

Right.
It doesn't do it all the time, but oddly it does seem to always do it when I try to view this thread;
http://www.snowboardclub.co.uk/PNphpBB2 ... 44571.html
In firefox after closing the warning it displays the page but it then blocks the whole right column, ads headlines, community etc.
In safari after closing the warning it then displays everything.
It may be my laptop having a strop, i'll try the IT helpline standard piece of advice. |

| Like a lot of things AVG used to be the best. It's just complete tosh now. Using Avast at the mo but I keep hearing good things about Microsoft Security Essentials. |
