    eek Visordown.co.nz

    Hey guys. As many of you will frequent this site also, I thought I should inform you that when I have tried to access it lately my virus protection has prevented it from opening. Apparently there is a virus/worm present.
    Not sure if anyone else has had the same problem?

    If anyone knows who the administrator is - it may pay to pass on this info.

    May pay to stay clear of it till the problem has been resolved?

    Later.

    I think you will find the site is shut down and it will re-direct you to another site.

    Both sites open normally without consequence on latest Ubuntu + Firefox.

    The forum link works fine. It displays the following message and then redirects to fxr150.

    I think your virus checker has been picking up a redirection script. Not a worm or a virus. Sometimes these products can be a little overkill and stop you doing what you want.

    Agreed. A redirect to a completely new domain IS a little suspect. It's fair to spook a browser with it, even if it IS perfectly valid HTML.

    i find that very odd! I have no idea why it would do that in fact the home page is just a standard php page that wyou would find on many websites. Clear your cache.temp files form your browser and go to the homepage again... www.visordown.co.nz

    I've added some new features to the site.


    1. You can now search for riders by using the search option 'Class'.
    2. You can now upload 3 profile images (previously only 2).
    3. Sponsor images now show at the top of your profile. see >> http://www.visordown.co.nz/rider_pro...p?user_id=1038 for example
    4. You can now easily add your race reports along with images from the day. See >> http://www.visordown.co.nz/rider_pro...p?user_id=1008 for an example.

    If you find any problems or have more suggestions then please add to this thread.

    Cheers
