Ok, things were fine yesterday.  I sent out the link today, and someone wrote back, "Malware, eh? Thanks, dude."  So I check it out and MY system says My blog has malware!  So I go to the home page and it's fine.  I click "My Blog," I get the malware warning!  This is the link:

Gee...  What do You suppose is up with this?  Should I be paranoid?

Turn off comments immediately, and delete any comments saved with links in them, might help.

I went to that link and see no warning... so it is likely a JAVA script stored on your PC

I do see you have 7 tracking thingies on that page though :D

Yep, Zorgon's right!
I had to turn off comments on my  blog a year ago due to high incidence of tracking links people would place within the html of the comment.

What they would do was to heap praise on what I wrote while using words that made no sense together, and when I went to see the html version, the weird words were links to malware or adware sites.

Blast those comments away and dont worry about what people think about your blog, they will e-mail you if they like it or not.

You can try a comment filter, but they dont work.

Best of luck!

Well...  I was tweeting it to others, and someOne tweeted back that statement above.  I went and got the same thing!  Others are saying it's fine for Them...  And it was fine for Me yesterday.

I am so confused.

EDIT to add:  Also, though it didn't happen on the first try, when I went to the home page again - I got the malware warning.  [sigh]

I just don't know what to do.  I tried to go there and My computer locked up.  Had to restart.

It wouldnt open for me a few minutes ago, is it down for repair?
Ill keep checking, but it's probably the server here, as it's raining cats and dogs right now!
Good luck, Amy!

Thanks, Dave.  This is a site I have not been going to personally in recent weeks because it sets off issues with My computer.  It has Flash elements.  I still have been directing Others to the site...

Now I have a link in Pastebin:  http://pastebin.com/3234sVzL  The links are not live, including the one with the definition of "stigmergy," which is annoying.  But the information is there and unlikely to be malwared.

I'm not tech savvy at all so, sorry I can't offer any help or suggestions...but, you have my emotional support as, I imagine it's quite frustrating for you.

Well...  Some People see it fine.  Others are told there is malware.  I don't know what is going on, but yeah.  If this was something done deliberately...  I am indeed honored.  [smile]

Greetings:

Looked good from this side of the fence.

We found the same cookies that Z did.

We scanned 'Nikki' and did not find any obvious links to anything untoward, but we are in no way experts and defer to Z, as always, in matters of CompSpeak.

Good luck and we'll check back to assist if possible.
