Malicious Internet Attack in Metro Forums

Post by wrea398 » Mon Mar 04, 2013 5:50 pm

Hi Guys. I have been a member here for a few years now and in the last month or so...EVERYTIME I head to the forums I get a Norton virus scan message that an malicious attempt to be hacked was blocked. Not sure is anyone else has had these issues or not. I remember getting malicious emails that contained the email addresses (CC's) of several members in the forums about a year ago. Just wondering whats up. Mine have all been handles thru my virus scan. Just an FYI...

Just to add, Norton is one of the suckiest, most invasive (sloooooow machine) pieces of software I've ever had the misfortune to use.
