I Just got this warning from Google Chrome when I came here.

Google has found that malicious software may be installed onto your computer if you proceed. If you’ve visited this site in the past or you trust this site, it’s possible that it has just recently been compromised by a hacker. You should not proceed. Why not try again tomorrow or go somewhere else?

We have already notified http://www.servedbyadbutler.com that we found malware on the site. For more about the problems found on http://www.servedbyadbutler.com.

Not sure if someone wants to look into it.

Original link deleted as incorrect.

Hi Mark, well my Norton 360 hasn’t warned me against this forum, and it usually picks up on anything a bit suspect.

Regards Nick.

It sounds like a ‘False positive’ Just make sure your anti virus is upto date, do some updates and also download ‘Anti Malwarebytes’ Its very good at finding nasties that the other anti virus software does not.

I can recommend Webroot Anti Virus, you pay for it and it acts as a sentinel and warns of any intrusion or attempts.

I run Linux on a Virtual Machine so Malware isn’t a great concern to me, it more the irritation of the warning on the site itself. Something the “web developers” provbably need to sort out.

Diane,

I think it’s just Chrome, as Firefox doesn’t complain.

Hi There

Norton and Internet Explorer don’t complain.

I think it is because we are not using Google’s adsense but as butler instead.

Hi

Internet Explorer 8 and Safari are fine running with the antivirus and antispyware supplied by Virgin.

No error now. Must have just been me imagining it.

Hi Mark,

Oh no you didn’t!

I, as a chrome user, had the problem this morning as did a friend of mine. Glad it is all clear now, perhaps someone was miffed with the site?

Hi all

Just had a reply back from the tech department. In a nutshell, it was a false alarm. I won’t even try to explain the reason but there was a good one. Staff at adbutler are sorting it out.

Regards
