Avast keeps alerting me that something has been blocked every time I open page 1 of the driving cab info thread.
something to do with buchannonmotors.com (not sure if spelled correctly)
I went down through the links and pictures, but didn't find the offending item.
I could have just missed it.
If anyone has slick software that can instantly point out the offending item, please let me know and I'll delete it.
If it's a pic, then I'll just save it to BYOAC and update the link.
Thanks.
EDIT: It's thesharkfactor's cab pics. I don't see them on my laptop, but I assume it's because avast is blocking it.
Any advice? I don't want people's AV alarms going off when they visit here.

That's odd, it's not doing it for me.
You could always convert them to links.

My antivirus also goes bananas on this link: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,136720.msg1411916.html#msg1411916 (http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,136720.msg1411916.html#msg1411916)
apparently retrogame.de is a known source for malware. And I guess one of the posts has a link to that site?

It's blocked by Avast at home and Trend Micro at work.
I tried copying and pasting the pic url into the browser, but trend micro blocks that too.
I'd like to download the pics and switch the hosting to BYOAC if someone who can see them is able to download them and attach them in this thread.
(or go ahead and attach them to the pic hosting thread in the project announcements forum if you'd like to save me a step)
The troubled pics are in Reply #3 by thesharkfactor

I think the solution is to write the urls down, pm thesharkfactor and tell him to re-up the images to the site... and delete them for now.

Ended up doing this. AV goes off and picture is blocked if I click the links, but at least it's not going off when I open the thread on BYOAC.

I have to stop getting my Avatars from porn and warez sites. :lol

Not thats its a real fix, but I ended up dumping avast due to this kind of stuff.
Too many false alarms. Back to MS Security Essentials I went. (Defender in Win 8/8.1). Been using it for years.. no viruses.
