When I try to access "The Fruit Stand" website I get a message warning me that it has been blocked and reported by Google Advisory as an 'attack site' which tries to install malware.Is anyone else getting this? Is it just a false positive? If so how can it be sorted out?

http://www.alpha-india.net/forums/index.php?topic=6250.0It's not safe to go there anymore. Just recently I tried to read a forum post there and a PDF with gibberish opened automatically. Before, I received numerous messages from my anti-virus program about various nasty things it quarantined... I have since removed TFS from my favorites.

If a site is suspect, it's not a good idea to posts links for it here, as people are inevitably curious and will click on it, and if the site was infected, will get infected as well, and may spread it elsewhere, including here!!

Hmm...seems like half the Web is getting attacked these days... :(

"The Fruit Stand" I wouldn't go there for any reason! :( JimCYWG

Normally I would agree with you, but unfortunately some people who either had poor or out-of-date security did not receive the warning, and were infected.Most who try to access the site receive the warning immediately, get no further. and are safe. However, the 'block' does give the option to ignore it. I wanted to make it clear that the risk of being infected if you do this is very high.I did think hard about the advisability of posting the warning, but because the risk is so high I felt it wise to do so. I was not the first to do this; there was a thread about it on the Alpha-India forum started some time ago, and a Google search for The Fruit Stand comes up immediately with a malware warning.

I wasn't objecting to the warning you gave, but the inclusion of the link to it, which I see has since been removed from your original post now!!! If anyone ignores that warning and goes manually looking for the site, they deserve what they get, but someone could easily accidentally click on the link which could infect them. That is just a disaster waiting to happen

You are correct. I should not have included that link, and I'm pleased that it has now been removed. thanks for pointing it out.There does seem to have been an increase recently in sites being hacked. It is important to ensure that you have good security, and that it is regularly updated.

I LOVED TFS, ##### is going on??? They're still labelled as harmful to computers. They gave me the best AI Q400 ever, complete with all the liveries, too. :(
