Hey I'm just writing because the malware warnings have disappeared for me since the beginning of march. I had my computer die since then though, so I get a new one, and I visit mcleodgaming.com a few times with no problem, but this morning I get the malware warning again. (still using avast) Maybe I should just try some other antivirus software. >.> Anyways, just wanted to let you know.

>.> I think you should try a different anti-virus software. I personally haven't seen anything since way back to the last time we were actually attacked.

They still pop up every once in a while but they're pretty much completely gone now.
If they come up then just log off the site for a few minutes and come back.

Sorry about that, to explain the situation exactly there are actually servers out there that cache website data (meaning they save copies of web pages to shorten download times). And what seems to be happening is that some users have their data routed through these servers depending on their network setup, and you can end up getting old copies of some of the website's info. This results in some people still getting malware warnings, even though the place has been nice and locked down for over a month now. This should resolve itself over time but for now all you can do is just be cautious

:lock:
