spybot and malicious urls

buttster · 2009-04-12, 11:39 AM

anyone running into problems with some sites freehosted gallerys making spybot malicious url popup warnings appear. I have been going in to some sites grabbing freehosted gallery urls and when I open some of them spybot is popping up with a warning and the name of the infection assigned to the url. I have never had it happen before until just lately, anyone else running into the same warnings appearing.

I dont run into that much. I use firefox and the nosript plugin. Scripting for any and all sites is turned off until I specifically allow it for that site.

I use Firefox too with the adBlockPlus plugin, I forget about publicity a while ago. The tool is a jewel.

buttster ... if you post some sample URLs we can take a look.

I'm sure plenty of people would like to know if there are some infected hosted galleries out there.
