Not sure if anyone else is having this problem

When I access the Voyageurs site (and only the Voyageurs site) I get a virus warning.

The source is hipoint. It will try to convince you that your computer is in grave danger and you need to install their software.

Do not open, just close it and it will eventually go away, the warning is essentially the virus itself.

I'm not getting it.

What browser are you on? I've not had a single virus warning with Firefox and I used to get them all the time with IE. Anyone on IE should upgrade, just a suggestion.

Anyways, maybe we can convince Jarrek to come around and look into this.

Had a strange warning in IE7 just now.

It's been fixed. I will apply the required patches for Snitz tonight. Seems like an SQL injection attack.

Same here. Also been on Firefox for a year now and have had no more funny stuff happening, which I used to get before.

Firefox was not affected. Other than the constant crashing, it's a pretty fast browser.

I'm glad to hear someone else thinks Firefox crashes too much! Used to use Firefox until I got tired of it crashing and found Opera. Opera is also free and is superior to Firefox to the same degree that Firefox is superior to IE. Only drawback is that occasionally some poorly designed websites don't run on Opera. Opera was also not affected by this virus.

BTW Jarrek me and some others are waiting for some info (how to pay and how much) to get you the money you paid for shipping us the scarves.

Thanks for that. It's easy to forget how hard some people work to give so many people their daily soccer fix. It's most appreciated.
