Not sure if this is just me, but whenever I go to forgeworld.com (not .co.uk) my antivirus is telling me it has a virus or something. Anybody willing to check if its just my computer or actually FW?

(the gamesworkshop site also appears to be unavailable for me...weird.)

I'm thinking it's just your computer. I'm not having a problem, nor have I been having trouble at all today.

Well thats good news then. Confused as to why the hell my computer is acting like this. Same thing happened when i tried to download a torrent that proved to be safe.

What anti-virus are you using? If it's stupidly sensitive, it might just be screaming for no reason.

Im using Avast at the moment. I havent gotten a virus with it yet, but this is pretty annoying.

It's probably just picking up a script somewhere on the Forgeworld page that it thinks is suspicious. You can get around it by adding Forgeworld to the exclusion list in the web scanning section.

Norton site safety lists www.forgeworld.com as being perfectly fine.

Is it possible that the "you must agree to accept cookies!" part of the site is triggering your antivirus program?

This is probably it. It's a popup that asks you permission to write to your PC.

Not news or rumor.
