Snesorama "Malware" Infection?

Post by DC_Tman »

Has anyone else noticed this? When I go to the Dreamcast Master List on Snesorama, a warning message says "This site may harm your computer". I don't know where this came from. There was an option to where you could "Ignore this message", and continue. So I took one for the team, and went. Everything was fine.....So I ran my virus scan, and...nothing.

What could this be? I don't see anything about it in the forums on Snesorama. Could someone make that message to make sure no one downloads DC games? Surely not... But it's very weird, nonetheless.....

Well...who doesn't hate the viruses? When it happens, I feel my hair is raising and growing and...uf, I'm becoming crazy. I hate this; I don't need trojans or stupid questions I see on my monitor sometimes. Who wants this? Somebody said something about norton; so what? I tried it too and the viruses still come. Now I use kaspersky and it's ok. I wait and when a virus comes, it deletes it. That's all we can do; by the way, this antivirus might help you kaspersky v7

Fixed. There's some problems with the ads. I'll report to the rest of the staff.
