Post by Ted66 »

Hi Ted. Welcome!
When a new site is created it can take anywhere from a few seconds to a few weeks for a site to be assessed by a search engine or a scam/spam filter. I don't use McAfee so I can't help you but if I remember correctly there is a button on the toolbar to "Check This Site" or similar.
Once you or someone else does the check it will then be OK for others too.
We have at least 50 members & no other concerns from them so let me know if you do find any alaem bells ringing please?
Enjoy the site!

Hi Ted & welcome to the Hapy Forum. Sorry I had to pass your post on to the boss to handle but I have no idea about that stuff. I use Sygate and Avira running together and they seem to find anything odd so I've never bothered with the other programs. Hope everything checks out ok or we are gunna have a lot of very pee'd off members :twisted:

I have submitted the site for assessing by McAfee- There is a section on their site for the owners on the submitted sit to Comment regarding their site if they so wish. Hopefully after they check my little site advisor will turn green :mrgreen: instead of the grey warning it now shows. This site was referred by members of the soon to be closed OZeRV Forum so hopefully it will grow a lot larger soon.

Hi and welcome Ted. What if any is the significance of your avatar or is that you just dreaming? :D

Ted if you are using Internet Explorer you should have the option of going to SAFETY on the toolbar, clicking on SmartScreen Filter & then Check This Website.
It comes up "no problems".
I'd be more worried about these skimming devices that are being found attached to ATM's.

Strange you mention that as I cannot see the avatar on the site on my computer it only has a blank space so I don't know if Admn has blocked it.
If you can see it it is an old bloke like me in a hammock in a nice quiet beachside spot. I used to have it in a fairly large graphic vinyl sign right across the back of my old caravan it was created by me & the vinyl cut by friend.I will try to attach bigger photo but don't know if its to big
