Hi Folks,
I just got updated on the virus situation by some MIT propeller-head
friends in Boston who reviewed the Forum thread and our website page-
by-page.
They say that a few applications (AVAST was noted) have very high
"filters of suspicion." Most applications (ESET, AVG, and Kaspersky
were noted) have slightly less paranoid filters. And of course, some
(no names mentioned) are not paranoid enough! [smile]
Turns out we use iframes on some of our web pages and iframes
(containing links, especially with a hidden attribute) are one way a
hacker could compromise a site and load a bomb.
So, if some checkers see an iframe with a link, they flag the web page
or entire site as suspicious.
No problem with that on our end. It's always better to be safe than
sorry!
So we'll re-work those iframe links over the next couple of days so
some people's virus checkers don't go off unnecessarily.
Again, we're really sorry for any hassles this may have caused anyone.
Please let Diana or I know (off-list) if you wanted anything from our
site and we'll email you a voucher code for 50% off.
Again, really sorry about all of this.
Best,
Mark
