Topic: Virus

Anybody getting a virus warning when first going to the forum?

I thought ; If I had one idea,
and took it from beginning to end.
I would try another.

I haven't seen it.

Re: Virus

Nope.  I assume it's on your end.  Malwarebytes is a great free program for removing viruses (it's not an antivirus blocker, just a removal tool).

Re: Virus

Can I assume you're using Norton/Symantec? We've had reports before of these programs not recognizing some aspects of Chordie and reporting possible problems. This is only because they are not recognized by these programs and not because of a problem or virus coming from Chordie. As far as I'm aware, we've never had any verified reports of bugs/viruses coming from Chordie at all other than these false flags....

Re: Virus

I get a message that reads "WARNING: Norton has detected the Rockin' Pneumonia and the Boogie Woogie Flu."

Anybody else?

(Sorry to make light of your problem, Marcalan.  My antivirus program seems to randomly display messages reminding me that it is there and that is has just saved me from a major catastrophe.  I think this is just a feature they design to kick in right around renewal time.)
