Steve Zodiac Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Oddly enough (using Opera which I know is really Chrome ) I had the red screen show up and just ignored it and carried on but now it loads up no problem with no red screen, opposite to everyone else, very strange.

DONG Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Yep I have no warnings now either. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jester292 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 I have warnings with every page load. This is the first I've been able to sign in because the warning would trump my attempt and redirect me back to the sign in page. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Slartibartfast Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 (edited) Firefox on my PC first started complaining, then Avast jumped in. I can't connect at all now. I'm having to use my iPad; Safari doesn't even notice a problem. Edited August 20, 2016 by Slartibartfast Quote Link to post Share on other sites

habu2 Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Not doubting anyone, butt I have not received a single error or warning on my desktop or laptop machines. Running Chrome browser and AVG anti-virus. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
F-16 Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Do you still get the warning when you try a direct link? (http://www.arcforums.com/forums/air/) I can get in with no problems using a direct link with FF and AVG. Scott CNJC-IPMS Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mfezi Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Do you still get the warning when you try a direct link? (http://www.arcforums.com/forums/air/) I can get in with no problems using a direct link with FF and AVG. Scott CNJC-IPMS I use both Firefox as my main browser and AVG as antivirus. Tested on two different computers from two locations, and I get the warning whether using the direct link or any other method to get to the site. I also get the warning when using Chrome on any of those computers. On the other hand, I do NOT get the warning when using Chrome or Dolphin on an Android tablet.

KursadA Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 (edited) Not doubting anyone, butt I have not received a single error or warning on my desktop or laptop machines. Running Chrome browser and AVG anti-virus. Chances are your security settings are not the Chrome default. Anyone using the default security settings on a recent version of Chrome should be seeing the warning. For everyone else: You can change this from the "Privacy" tab in "Settings -> Show Advanced Settings" in Chrome. If the entry "Protect you and your device from dangerous sites" is checked off, Chrome does not show the warning. Unless you are surfing a lot of shady Web sites, it should be fairly harmless to turn this off for a few days until Steve finally reads this thread and takes action. Just remember to turn it back on after the issue is resolved. Edited August 21, 2016 by KursadA Quote Link to post Share on other sites
airmechaja Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 (edited) I'm having no problem with Safari on my desktop but I get the warning constantly with Firefox! I take that back..........now Safari is giving me the warning also! Edited August 21, 2016 by airmechaja Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Just remember to turn it back on after the issue is resolved. FWIW, Chrome only makes you pass through the warning page when you open a new window or tab. Keeping the window open and clicking on links within the forum site doesn't bring on fresh reminders. As such, I haven't seen the warning since the 17th since I only shut my system down to change hardware. Sadly, it's only been 10d 16h since the utility company's last unplanned shutdown of my system. Oddly, my Android phone has never showed the warning, and that's Chrome (Chromium?) too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ichitoe Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 I'm no longer having any issues accessing the site. I'm using Chrome, and oddly, I did nothing, no setting changes or URL change. Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Geoff M Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 For what it is worth, I have a Mac that I use with Safari, Phishing warning comes up on every click. I have a pc running IE11 with no warnings whatsoever. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

john53 Posted August 22, 2016 Author Share Posted August 22, 2016 (edited) I uninstalled AVAST and bought McAfee and all issues went away! I no longer get the "red page" stating Deceptive Site, although it still may well be. Also my ARC avatar in my bookmarks has returned back to it's former blue color, had turned an ominous evil looking red!---John Edited August 22, 2016 by john53 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I still have Firefox installed, although I rarely use it anymore, but I tried it and same results, the warning pops up when I navigate to the ARC forums.
