Probably unrealated, but since yesterday there’s no way to edit anymore when I use IE. Editing is ok with Safari on my iphone though. I haven’t tried Firefox yet, but I’ll use it for my next comment to see if editing comes up.
FF is ok. I hope editing comes back for IE, I really dislike using FF.
I have deactivated the Editing of comments temporarily while trying to fix the site. I’ll probably reactivate it if it’s not the problem.
It just now re-directed me, but I got in on the second try. I was about to email you about it when I saw this post. I still can’t get the first post to display. I wonder if the virus is in there?
Chrome gets through the second time
The virus triggered all my security (about 4)
Thought I was catching a key, or going mad 🙂
As others say its only the first hit I get redirected, when I close and and return its ok, nothing malicious just spooky, I’m using Firefox browser if that helps.

Jonco, About 1/2 hour ago I hit your site and got hit with one of those fake virus check programs. It was triggering all kinds of alerts. I don’t run with virus software so I just turned the system off rather than click on anything and I am ok, but know something is still going on.
I just had it a few minutes ago. crtl-alt-del’d out of firefox before it completely loaded just to be sure.
I’ve seen that trap before.
Got through on the second try.
Ah, here’s where it took me:
h t t p: //scaner24. org/?affid=318&subid=landing
(I added spaces here because sometimes BnP will delay a post if it has a link.)
I had to use task manager to close the page…. it runs a fake scan and wants you to download some software…
It’s a drive-by site.
I would recommend that anyone who was redirected run a full virus and malware scan.
That was one helluva virus.
I haven’t stopped sneezing since I got home from work…
My AVG software completely blocked me from accessing a comments page this afternoon. I thought that it was a hiccup because I tried again after a few minutes and everything was fine.
Unfortunately my AV let me through (avira, Malewarebytes, etc.) but I closed it out since I’ve seen that kind of thing before. Scanning now, and praying I don’t need to reformat…
