hacking tools

[nicat]

Does anyone else suffer from hacking tool attacks when using this site?

[AB Editor]

Oh my! It does say "hacking tool" doesn't it! My apologies for being so dismissive.

I'll see what we can do to get rid.

Thanks. It is obvious linked to the adverts I will try and follow the other thread to block them and see if that makes a difference, 4 notices have come in since I looged intot hei site a few minutes ago!

I have blocked the ads and no more notices have appeared plus the back button, which did not always work, is working. Lets hope that the problem is solved - but it is weird without the flashing ads!

I seem to be missing something. Who is Panda.?

Thanks methyl for having explained 'Panda'. I thought, from an earlier posting, that nicat was engaging in a conversation with someone named 'Panda'. I should have realised otherwise because av was added to the name.

Anyway, I am happy with free MSE as my virus protection and would never pay £30-£50. for something like Panda. I shouldn't really say it on AB, but I do not suffer with problems which involve Advertisements because I have engaged Adblock.(also free)....It's the flashing adverts which I really dislike and if AB were to stop them, I would disengage my Adblock on the site.

Methyl - As you can probably tell I am not very technical and do not understand all of your comments about your problems with this site. I am using windows 7 and I am in the UK. Panda was recommended by my son in law who has lived in the US. The adblocker came from Firefox and since installing it, I have had no problems. I had not realised that you could block them until I read your thread.

i have also disabled the ads. I would not have done it but the moving an flashing ads were hurting my eyes.
