Hey Admins!
Since morning, i am having problem on opening Excelforum.com... It says Malware detected and not safe to open site..
Why is it happening andwhat may be the reason.. Does it really contains a link with viruses?

Yes, it does. You're better off not visiting it, but if you really must then disable javascript in your browser
I think that happened to me all day yesterday, the night before, and earlier today. It seems to be resolved now.
A message from an admin by e-mail said it was an issue they were working
Thanks for the tip, Kyle... I didn't think of that.

You're lucky it's been happening regularly lately and intermittently for near to a year!
I'm using Chrome and just Googled and found this :-

Hi Rob,
I wouldn't do it unless I had other protection. See Ron's post.
xladept: that link is not available.
The thing is you CAN go past the warning ... but at your own risk. My AV software goes apeshit from just loading ANY EF web page. The warnings are constant and continue even after I close the page. So, my view is that there is a significant risk if you continue without adequate malware protection.
My current method is to use my iPad. I check the threads (with no warnings or obvious problems, even using Chrome). If there is a thread I am interested in, I will copy and paste the formula or code into an email, mail it to myself, then copy and paste it on my PC. I can then test a solution and reverse the process to update the thread. But that is getting to be an irritant. Can't see me persevering with that.
Hey InvisibleMan,
That link is working for me - wow, that seems to be too troublesome!
This is what I get when I try to access the thread you refer to as Ron's post.
And yes, it is. Interest vs Trouble ... balance very much falling on the Trouble side.InvisibleMan, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:
Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

This is Ron's post:
My browser just stopped me from changing webpages within Excelforum then blocked me from entering Excelforum, after leaving, without having to ignore the warning message and a couple of other prompts. My anti-virus and anti-malware didn't find anything to block.
It seems that Excelforum has made it onto Google's Attack site list.
I just got a red URL bar for this site. I ignored it for a while and went to Blue Screen. I wonder if it was an attack or a weak battery. Back now plugged in using IE 11.
I hope our site isn't passing us viruses... Admins??
One test is worth a thousand opinions.
