I get a "deceptive site ahead" warning from Chrome on this thread:
Sirens sounded, they seemed astounded: THE ILM RAP MUSIC OF THE GODS ALL TIME 100 GREATEST ALBUMS OFFICIAL THREAD

(apparently the culprit is something called "technodisco.net"

Firefox and McAfee too - "may try to steal your information."

Firefox / Norton here. Same 'deceptive site' message, even when going directly to technodisco.net.

I'm not getting a warning about anything. When you try it, is there a particular site that is getting flagged?

I was getting this on Safari for www.ilxor.com.

Not gonna click it to see what's up, but you guys might want to check this post:

Joan Didion

Newly registered user, first ever post, Dropbox link. It may be nothing but it smells fishy to me.

I googled them up based on their email when they registered because we've been getting a ton of spammers lately and I just check everyone. They're actually just a huge Joan Didion fan, as per the username.

Cool, thanks. Better safe than sorry.

There was a linked image from technodisco.net on there, which I've deleted now. Can you check that theead again and let me know if it's still happening?

Thread is so borked I'll have to get stet to look at it -- I get the same warning and then it refuses to finish loading.

Not sure where to put this...not ILX, but seems to be the thread.

I got one of those ransomware e-mails about three weeks ago. It got my attention because the subject line had a password I used to use a lot a decade ago but haven't used for ages. The e-mail was ridiculous and of course I didn't respond.

Didn't occur to me until today that a) I still use that password for ILX (an automatic login, so I never think about it), and b) my user profile links to my homepage, and you can get my e-mail address there.

So I'm not 100% sure the e-mail reached me via some ILX security issue (which is 100% my own fault for keeping my name and homepage on my user profile--I'm going to remove those), but it would seem to make sense.

Getting a Norton alert if I try to open all messages in Posts you had second thought about and decided not to post - put them here - something about network traffic from www.tentacl.com and/or IP 103.224.182.253 ?
