McAfee Blocking Dangerous Content on ChiefsPlanet?
 

Is anyone else getting this message?

Why are you using McAfee?

That's the question.

What's wrong w/ McAfee?

It's just warning you about my awesomeness... Don't worry, I'll set my girl catcher to stun.

McAfee is a lot more dangerous than anything on Chiefsplanet.

Delete that shit.

It's probably blocking a mention of "Avast!"

McAfee and Norton are awful.

LMAO

LMAO
Are you people blind?

Ok then... can you guys recommend a different antivirus software?

Naked men riding horses?

Oh shit. Rent a midget LMAO

I wonder if that's a side job for Dex?

Wouldn't that just keep opening up porn sites on my web browser?

Depends on who's it was modeled after.

If it was mine, it would either be on the volleyball thread or Cabellas.com.
If it's GoChief's, it would be on the Jengo-Fett fan page and realrubbergirls.com.

I remember when this joke was funny like 5 years ago.

What joke, Buck? McAfee is throwing up these damn pop-ups every couple of minutes. I was just wondering if anyone else was having the same issue. :harumph:

Shhhh...

Well, weird thing is... She's using my laptop.

I hope you set her up as a separate user.

Nah, too many passwords to track.

That reminds me... you got an IM earlier.

LOL

I remember when your posts didn't make me want to curb stomp kittens.

No I don't

I can try to add a little bit of actual information to this. I've been dealing with this on my own site and some client sites.

McAffee, Symantec (Norton), etc. use these stupid 'suspicious site' things just to get web site owners to register with them. The only way to get your site to NOT show up this way is to register your site and all your own personal information with them. Then they run a "test" on your site and will eventually give you the nice green check mark (in theory).

I've submitted 2 of my sites (angelleye.com and usbswiper.com) and I've also been dealing with this for many of my clients. I've seen some sites get approved and get the green check mark within a few weeks. Others have been waiting months without any update. They won't give you any information on when it will update, either. They just keep saying it's in que.

It's a complete scam on their part, in my opinion, to get website owners to provide their information to these companies. I can't even imagine how many sales I've probably lost because people see it and don't even bother calling. Drives me nuts. Especially when I've followed all their stupid instructions and it just sits in the que for months.

As for everybody commenting on McAffee AV and Norton AV sucking...well, they do. They're resource hogs and they just spit BS stuff like this at you all the time.

If you're on Windows I'd recommend you just go with Microsoft Security Essentials. It's free and provided directly from the same company that created your OS. I've been using it for years and have never had a problem. It never gets in the way, either, unless there really is a problem.

Lol trolled.

Look closer at the image

Eh, still could be useful info for somebody. Heh.

Believe it or not, I was looking for some serious input on the matter. But I also wanted to see how many people were actually paying attention. ;) One thing I did notice was that McAfee wasn't doing this until after we installed Google Chrome.

I will definitely check out the Microsoft Security Essentials tonight. Thanks for the recommendation, (and for having a good sense of humor)!

:hmmm: Do you expect me to read all that shit?

:D

LMAO I didn't see it, and clearly noone else did either. If you wouldn't have said anything, this thread would be rocking by now. You ruined it.



I thought we agreed not to post things in public anymore. Last time i ended up paying you child support, and it wasn't even your kid!

Yeah, Gonzo. I put a lot of effort into this and you just couldn't leave it alone, could you? :huh:

LMAO

When are you and gonzo ****ing going to go to a Chiefs game?

And I'm STILL waiting for Miller Lite and ribs. :cuss:

Microsoft Security Essentials. Learn it. Use it. Love it.

Hey everybody, should I just ban Tytanium for a week or for a month?

Yeah, I think so. He's obviously looking for trouble.

I think I'm going to just ip ban his whole set-up.

When they're worth a ****.

Ya, we need to do this. April maybe? Home opener for the Royals at my place?

Just because they have a stadium doesn't mean they can protect your computer.

I'm not entirely sure what's truth and what's fake, but occasionally pages here will throw a warning if someone's hotlinked an image from a site that has questionable practices. If it happens, provide me with the specific page, and I'll check it out.

I use Microsoft Security Essentials as well and can vouch for it. No reason to pay for A/V. In addition to MSE I would also download Malwarebytes.

http://www.malwarebytes.org/

Don't buy it, use the free version. I would run full scans of your PC monthly with both programs or whenever you feel you are being "attacked."

I dunno, do you actually watch the Royals?

I do, (on an intermittent basis).
I will really watch them this year because Reaper told me this is THE year.
Posted via Mobile Device

Well shit, if this is THE year, then count me in!

I always used the free version of avast until they sent an offer for the full version for $9.95.
I jumped on that shit.

I also have malwarebytes & SuperAntiSpyware Free edition. Comcast tries to pedal free McAfee but I don't want anything to do with it.

I considered linked graphics on some of the threads as being the cause, but the warning also appears on my user page. Unless someone placed a link in a rep comment, it doesn't make much sense for the warning to appear there.

Honestly, I have no real complaints about McAfee except for when it does an automatic update and stalls out my internet. It's been excellent for keeping viruses at bay, but I found it strange that it's popping up often on CP and I don't recall it happening on any other site.

I can send you a link when it happens again. However, as previously mentioned, I didn't begin getting these warnings until I switched from IE to Google Chrome. My guess is it's a security setting issue on my end and there's probably nothing harmful on the site.

Microsoft Security Essentials is a great free antivirus solution if you have a genuine copy of windows. If your willing to pay, then NOD 32 is hands down the best available.

Probably should go with NOD 32 since you're downloading naked dudes on horses.

You're probably right. Oh, and that bookmark title is wrong, the site is HorsesRidingNakedMen.com. So yeah, I should check into the NOD 32. Thanks! :D

I won't claim to know more than several others on here... hardly... but I use avast virus protection and haven't had a virus once in 5 years using it... and spybot search and destroy and run a check once a week. Never any problems.

And stop looking at naked men on horses online and have some respect for your husband.

I've used Spybot before and it worked well on the old laptop. When we got the new laptop I downloaded CCleaner and it does pretty much the same thing as Spybot.

Again, this isn't just my laptop... Gonzo bookmarks that crap. He even said so in one of his posts. Translation: Lumpy is innocent. Innocent, I tells ya!

LMAO

Wow. I had no idea this was the year. Holy ****ing shit. I am not prepared. Sounds like they're gonna be worth a ****. You guys should come out for a game.

You're really pushing for us to drive to KC, aren't you? Does this have something to do w/ that discussion you had with Gonzo about an Eiffel Tower? :hmmm:

I have a few bullies i need gonzo to take care of.
Posted via Mobile Device

Bullies? Did they take your lunch money and give you a swirlie?

They wouldn't let me cross the bridge. I haven't been home in weeks.
