Sorry, I should have said for windows XP use control/alt/delete and that will bring up the task manager.

EXACTLY!!! That's how I got a virus once. My husband is a computer pro and he was NOT pleased that I fell for that. But who would have known that closing the box could start the download? You can also simply reboot and it will clear the pop up. Just don't go anywhere near the box.

Thank-you for this hint...I didn't have the Cisco warning pop up on my screen, but when I clicked under the clock the task manager it did show the cisco website warning, so I closed it as suggested, and will continue to each time I come to this site...hopefully someone will figure out what is going on.

For the past 2 days, I haven't been able to access the site through my email link. I get the same warning from my Trend Micro security saying the website is dangerous, may install malware, phishing, scamming, etc. I opened the software to allow the site with no results. I can only access the message board by typing in the address.

Yes, that works for me.
However, how do I access Quilter Board Messages from the home page??

I haven't gotten any messages like that. It sounds like maybe your computer has a virus, I would not click continue. I would have my virus checker run a scan and go from there.
