IMPORTANT - MODERATORS HELP!!??
 

Every time I go to service my ad(s) in the market place, or attempt to contact RCU directly, the page either freezes up or my anti-virus says "a serious threat has been detected."

I have had several friends and prospective customers say the same thing.

How can we solve this problem?????

Thanks,

I use AVG antivirus software and am getting the same problem. It says a serious threat has been detected.

Get rid of AVG! and use something else? I don't have any trouble. I have some scripts blocked like viglink and ibpxl

I was reading in the Clubhouse forum and that is the conclusion they came to... was to use something besides AVG.

I have no problem's. I am using Norton.

More importantly, Why is this post in the engine forum's?

probably because the engine forum is the place he considers home

I also have all the ads blocked and have never had any problem even in the various parts of the market place or looking at members dossiers

I block scripts which are not needed to view the site and I use Adblock Plus.

I use Ubuntu and Firefox with no virus scanners. Luckily, I have not had a virus since 2006 when I left Microsoft Windows.

At home my PC doesn't see any problems per se with the marketplace. But at work it is blocked and classified as a malicious website for malware, spam, etc.
So it may be on someone's black-list somewhere.

I tried all the possible conventional means to contact RCU about the problem, and every time I did, I got the virus message and usually my browser froze up as well. Yes, I use AVG and have been very happy with it. It has safely protected several of my and my family's computers for years. It says it is a serious virus that they have in their database. Even more frustrating is that it usually freezes up my browser and I can't do anything; edit my ad, answer questions, etc. After trying for several days to contact RCU, out of desperation I posted in this and the "Engine Conversions" forums. And yes, I consider "Gas Engines" and "Conversion Engines" to by my "Home" on RCU.

Hope they get it fixed soon. I need to sell a few engines!

John of the marketplace has been on vacation for a couple weeks and should be back - day after tomorrow.

See if you can PM him your problem ahead of time?

Why should I change my Anti virus protection program because of one site, that make no sense at all. When an anti virus program says that there is a problem as a rule there usually is one. This thread has some very good info on the situation, http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_11...m.htm#11206343
