Unfortunately our ISP's transparent proxy servers are the cause of most problems. A proxy server stores images on sites to speed your browsing sessions and save your ISP money by not having to download the same image time and time again. Unfortunately some times the saved images can get mixed up and appear on pages they are really not meant to be on. These problems happen mostly on websites that are hosted on servers that are share with other websites hosting the porn sites. The only way around this is to host the site on a private server (read $$$) or host the site with a host that doesn't allow porn sites(which we already are).

The virus issue is most probably be cause the false images you load are most likely scripted to redirect you to other sites that contain viruses.

You'll see the following test has checked our site ok.

G'day

I reckon its a conspiracy by jealous Transit owners.

- I guess it's one of those "you had to be there moments" :/
The problem I have is that most of my stories end with... and that is why I am not allowed to go back there!

My Antivirus Protector is alerting me that there is a portential threat here: "HTML/ScrInject.B.Gen Virus"   ::)

This is an issue with a lot of different Antivirus solutions at the moment. You need to make sure its updated.

Everyone else having problems loading images from other sites when coming here, what ISP's are you using?
ISP'S??? Sorry, I have no idea what that means. I am very computer illiterate in the area of viruses and many other facets. I did a scan on my ESET and it told me there were 10 infiltrations. I deleted off all the threats. But as soon as I came back on here, it's started again. So must definately be something nasty lurking here. I'm now very reluctant to come back on here.  :o :o ::) Cheers.

It could be that you actually have a virus on your computer. There was/is a bug with Eset that reports viruses on webpages that really dont have viruses on them. See this forum: http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=316216

Kerry, if you continue to have problems with your computer, please call me on 0731881444

Please don't use Norton. Its rubbish. Avg is much better but it is getting a little bloated.

For a really good Antivirus Solution for home PC's please download and install Avast Antivirus.

G'day

Security on your PC is a bit more than having antivirus software.

A good site for Freeware is:
http://www.techsupportalert.com/

A good read is:
http://www.techsupportalert.com/how-to-secure-your-pc.php

another is:
http://www.techsupportalert.com/content/probably-best-free-security-list-world.htm


If that doesn't scare you then nothing will.
The problem I have is that most of my stories end with... and that is why I am not allowed to go back there!
