Off to Mels Forum

I was using Firefox too.  When I tried to shut the other forum last night I got loads of virus messages, but had read on here that that had happened to a few people and it was all OK so I ignored it.  This morning it took nearly 2 hours to get my machine to even boot up in safe mode

Don't think I'm going to risk it today as this is my work machine too

Mine has too. :-(

For some reason I have had a virus message too.  I am able to open it up in another window though but cant close the warning screen down.

I logged on to the new site the evening that Hitched was down, I spent ages trying to get my machine to boot back up, but it would only do it  in safe mode.  At least I know where the virus came from now.

I have registered but not posted yet, am a little put off at the thought of getting a virus. Then I would have to confess a double hitched addiction to H lol.

Is it just me or has the other place just crashed/gone completely slow?

tbh, I think I'll be staying over here as I'm pretty sure Darren's servers are better than a free forum one so even if it does occasionally creak under the weight of posts it is probably a lot more reliable. The other place hasn't even managed a full day yet...

(no virus issues here btw but I expect it's because I'm on a Mac)

I'm unable to access SL either now - suspect sabotage?

It's just crashed on me. I wonder if the OTers will come back here now?

Crashed for me too, gutted as I want to know about the criminal neighbour!!

Same here, it crashed while I was on page 4 of Tilly Floss' neighbour thread and I'm dying to know what happened!

TBH you should have decent virus protection in place no matter where you go on the web because you never know. We don't know for sure the virus came from freeforums - I've been using them for months and months with no problems. Whilst I'm on a Mac at home I'm on a PC at work and they let me access freeforums - they wouldn't if it was dodgy.

I had the virus pop up thingy but its only for you to buy their virus protector. I just blocked the pop ups and they're gone. I've run my virus scan and it says theres no threats found.
