    We should be OK. If INGO is being attacked by a virus, it was most certainly the product of a leftist, hence too damned lazy to do much.

    I have continued to post after dismissing the warning screen. I have done in-depth scans of my hard drive and no virus. It is becoming a pain in the butt to dismiss the warning sign every time I come here. I think it's a threat sponsored by a anti gun group.

    If you have good virus protection and run Firefox, you can click on 'Tools', Options, Security and uncheck the box that says "Block Reported Attack Sites". That will get rid of the warning screens. If you are coming here regardless of the warnings you don't have anything to loose.

    +1 to the left being behind it. My phone was freaking out earlier (Droid OS). Everything else does fine with it.

    Not according to our IT department.

    and what company do you work for? i've had zero issues with any of my rig, and i visit this site every day, even with the warning thats been popping up. zero malware, zero spyware, my computer is clean. your IT guy wasnt sure what was really wrong, so he grasped at the first thing he could find. bestbuy does the same thing with their geek squad

    Frog, you seem to think you know quite a bit about my PC, the sites I visit and even the IT department where I work. The truth is you don't know anything about me and where I work is none of your damn business.

    sophomore in college for PC maintenance and network support, i have my A+ certification and i'm in the process of getting my networking and linux certs as well. so yeah, i kinda do know a lot about your computer. no need for anger, i was simply informing you that THIS site most likely had nothing to do with you having to have an IT guy reformat your hard drive

    Sophmore in college. I should have known :ugh:

    Of course you know everything and an old geezer like me knows nothing. It probably was one of those porn sites I visit. You're right Andrew. Please accept my sincere apology.
