I am getting a "blocked site" message from the SGW website.
To do with "attack" software.
Anyone else?
Hacked? This site vulnerable?

Sorry about asking about the "competition" here........

I started getting it yesterday too. I have had that before (with the LCS site I believe). I think that they need to take care of the problem at their end?

My virus protection warned me of Shotgunworld.com having dangerous viruses waiting to infect my computer.

Couldn't access it through Google Chrome browser, got the 'bad software danger' warning, but Opera got me there OK with no evident damage for the PC.

Yes, you can force your way in over the security objection,but there can be a price to pay later. Don't be surprised if at a later date you get warnings (false) about disk failure, etc. and click here for diagnosis, and if you do, all heqq breaks loose. I got nailed by malware last year and I believe it was from SGW.
For at home internet surfing, I downloaded Ubuntu, an easy (and free) to use Linux based suite of programs that is fast and largely immune from the problems hacker inflicted on Microsoft.

I hate the freaking advertisements over there and I'm not really interested in the tactical stuff. Compared to this site I'm not missing a thing at SGW.

I see a "phising" warning on my Mac.

I wouldn't override it, the site managers will no doubt clear it up in a day or two; their sister sites had the same problem recently and it was taken care of. Until then particularly if you are running Windows, I'd leave it well alone.

Thank you, very kind. Mine's a pint

Common sense police on a raid? smile

Should've said I opened the site with Opera accidentally, a good while after the previous attempt with Chrome, and since neither Opera nor my antiviral software blocked the move, I reconed either the problem had been fixed or the Crome was paranoid. Now that I see other people having the same issue with different software, including applish - well then, there IS something wrong with the site.

I drop by regularly at the Russian Gun Lovers branch of Shotgunworld, as a self-designated expert on the earlier and rarer Russian guns, and it's grown into a habit. So I hope the problem is taken care of soon.
