All of my girls are clean thank you but I wont use the link till I hear back all is clear and my filter agrees

I have checked, and find nothing wrong on our end.  I've gotten reports that firefox, and chrome browsers say "Attack!" but I have not been able to duplicate this on our end.  I see nothing on the server that would be considered a threat.  If anyone has any specific details, I would appreciate it.

Ok, I finally saw it on my end.  I'll dig deeper.  I don't think there is anything that is user accessible....so it is safe to proceed past the "WARNING!" page.

Chrome identifies it as malware from photostash. I posted a screen shot on the temp board.

My friend Easygoer who hasn't been on the main board since the change over was persuaded to check out some info here the other day and when he did here's what he said, and I quote:
"This innernet is a scary place
I can go to the main site, and the main message board ok, but as soon as I click on a post, the "Malware Detected" warning pops up.
Haven't changed my settings, and they aren't real strictly set. They seem to be doing their job, so I'll leave them as is." end quote.

I'll post over on the Fl. board to let him know that he wasn't alone on this particular fraggle.
Just sayin

Don't know if this helps...but here is the information I found out...

Google reports badware-related activity on vrcc.photostash.com/ as of Jan 10th 2010


http://www.google.com/safebrowsing/diagnostic?site=http://vrcc.photostash.com/

I still can't get into PhotoStash...it just pops back up to the login screen...after i get the warning message.

I'm getting the same message.
I'm using FireFox 3.5.7
I had malware 2 years ago.  Don't want it again.
If its any help I did get an automatic update to firefox since the last time I was on photostash.

Scott you have my permission to wipe out the whole site and start over if thats what it takes.

There is no huge danger here folks.  I know your browser is warning you, and probably won't let you view photostash....but its not a big deal.  I have our IT guy looking at it.  It will be awhile before we get off that list...even if we get whatever it is fixed.

I can get into Photostash with no errors.

I've got probably one of the tightest virus/malware software available for XP...............

I'm using Firefox and have no problem now.  I did a few days ago, so it looks like you fixed it.

Thanks!
