Is anyone else getting an "attempted attack" message when logging on here?

It's been happening just today.

Norton keeps blocking them but it's only happening when I'm coming on the org. sad

Earlier I was getting something about "server not secure" (also only when I logged on here). That's not coming up anymore. confuse

Even your computer is trying to save you and itself from the org and you blindly ignore it and come anyway. neutral

That's from exceeding the allotted amount of text in a post. Of course, no one knows how much text is allowed.

If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

I get the "attempted attack" alerts frequently from Norton, but I assume it's usually coming from uTorrent running in the background, and never assumed it was from The Org.

Hasn't happened in a while. I'm not the most tech-literate person. I only assumed, because the message only came up when I got on the org. I don't even know what u-Torrent is. boxed

I think that was a reasonable assumption to have made, under those circumstances I would have drawn the same conclusion nod . I'm glad for you that it hasn't happened in a while. Nevertheless, you've got the right AV software installed, in my opinion. I could do a little commercial for Norton's products, lol. I've used most of the other antivirus software out there over the years (and many were good!), but I've been most impressed overall with Norton.

(uTorrent is a popular BitTorrent client)
