Where'd old times go?

Photostash

Last nite I was in the middle of commenting on our ride to Greenwood and was going to insert some of the pictures that I had taken.

Doing my usual, I went to Photostash to upload and was immediately facing a screen that indicated MALWARE!

This was not the usual "Contact us to remove ... or Upgrade your anti-virus ... or ".

I immediately backed out and shut down.

Now what.

According to Valkpilot, I don't have to use Photostash as my photo storage/retrieval service but I have been using it since I joined VRCC and was shown how to use it at that time.

Hopefully, the powers that be, (Daniel) will investigate.

I sent an email to VRCC Staff last week about the same thing, but haven't heard back. I'm not sure if the problem is on their end, or if my latest version of FireFox is just wigging out. Which browser are you using, Tom?

It's not anything the VRCC folks can really do, the entire .photostash.com domain is listed as malware. Even going to http://www.photostash.com/ gives the warning.

It's more for "one off" image postings, but I've been using this site lately:
