    I actually meant a screen shot of the INGO page that generated the flag, not the flag itself. They'll need to see whatever banner ad or embedded photo or whatever is causing it.

    It has taken me directly to the flag every time I've come to INGO this morning.

    Update: Brownell's and Sinclair on the top and down the left side, respectively, were the ads displayed the last two times I logged on and got the flag.

    Update 2: I got the malware alert going from one page to the next on the status update thread, Brownell's was the only ad on the page and was displayed across the top. Oops, three speed holster was also in top right corner.

    I am getting the warning too. Not on every click but on some. I can see the brownells add and Atlanta conservation club above and UPromise below so it probably isn't one of those triggering the warning.

    INGO has no malware. It's slightly possible that one of the rotating banner ads includes some code that is throwing a false positive, but it's much more likely that your computer is infected with something. However, in order to determine that, you need to provide much more detailed information. Preferably a URL and/or a screen shot of the page being displayed when you got the alert.


    It's one of the ad rotators...

    Malware warnings for me as well. Just started today. Using Chrome. Must be an add as it doesn't do it every time. Just every once in a while.
