[vivandorron]

Thanks folk for your very prompt answers to my question.

I go along with boxie and den, but, for the moment, I am taking the advice of Trim, because the following is the position which now prevails when I override the message:-

The warning messages have now gone and the site is operating o.k., along with the one suggested by Trim.

However, I have tried another test site which I really like because, it not only gives up and down Broadband speeds, it also provides street maps(similar to Google's) so that you can see speeds in the area for one's own and other providers; and also trace routes right back to the telephone exchange and establish the average speeds emanating from the exchange.

Surely one can only run the test for one's own PC, not see your warning.

Hi O_G,....It was the case that the site 'myspeedtestonline.com' was deemed to have been bugged and anyone clicking the original link which I gave in my question could have had the same message. However, clicking the link now should take you direct to the site, which is now apparently back to normal.

In fact the warning message was similar to one which I recall we had quite some time back with AB....and the Ed reassured us that AB had not been bugged.

I guess these warning messages can be dependent upon one's Browser and one's Virus Protection Programme. Hence perhaps the reason for Myskavik being unable to access the link which I have now given for 'top10'........ I use Firefox along with Microsoft Security Essentials (both of which are free downloads)

Ah. Might have been a dodgy advert then.

[vivandorron]

Could have been something along the lines of what you have said O_G.

Anyway things are now back to what appears to be normal.

Incidentally, have you tried the latest site link which I have posted above (Top10.com).
I think it's better than the other two originals.

Ron.
