Getting to the boards thru a link....virus??
It seems these past few days whenever I try to get to the QB by using a link that is sent to my email account from the QB from a thread that I posted a comment on, my anti virus software blocks me from going back to view the thread saying a virus. Is this happening to anybody else?
|
I use trendmirco titanium and it won't allow me to click on a link from my email. It does this to keep my email address from being transferred. I can go to any site as long as I don't try to click through my email.
|
I just tried something, I came on the QB and viewed a page then copied the address bar at the top of the QB page and pasted it to my "compose" page in my email and sent it to myself and when I tried to go back to the QB using the link from the address bar my anti virus blocked it again.
|
hmmm, I saved the link to the board in my Favorites and always come in that way.
|
It depends on the anti virus program you use. Some block all clickable links that come through email. I use a free gmail account for all quilting related sites so it doesn't matter if my email address is transferred.

When I first got on the board I just Googled Quilting Board. After registering, I added to my favorites. It usually bypasses everything. I have yet to get a virus warning. Only time I get a virus warning is when I try to click onto an older link once in awhile.

Might know I just posted a comment and now have gotten 3 threats. Think Qb may have a situation.

I have been having the same problem! sometimes I get lucky and get through before the warning pops up and sometimes I can not post even if I do. Very frustrating to say the least! I have run every malware and anti virus program I have (I use Avast) and still not change.
