when i attempted to open the AB, McAfee redirected me to their security page.
anyone else had this warning ??????
this is just a small section of the warning i recieved.


Why were you redirected to this page? When we tested, this site attempted to make unauthorized changes to our test PC by exploiting a browser security vulnerability. This is a serious security threat which could lead to an infection of your PC.

BlackThunder. I understand your concerns that a site may not be 'safe'. However, my experience says that AnswerBankand all its categories are indeed safe to use. Where it sometimes becomes 'risky' is where the idiot users - and there are a few - post spurious links. It is best then to use your discretion whether toclick on those.

Here is a test I conducted on the AnswerBank site via McAfee and all seems well.

You're welcome BT. Just wish I could have given some useful info about your question!

sir prize, ive got the green site advisor now, but last night there was a full page warning and a red site advisor for the AB !
cant fathom it out myself, but will keep my eye on the warnings.
thanks for your reply and link.
Mrs Chappie, all genuine answers appreciated. i believe you gave a good and genuine answer. :-)

BlackThunder. That is really strange. I also use the green McAfee SiteAdvisor. When I type the word answerbank into Google, the McAfee is now showing two green ticks. So I preseume it is all ok now.
Oh good. I'm glad about that BT. Was a little worried you might think I was being sarky!

:o)
