When browsing this forum (and only this forum) I get constant pop ups from my anti virus software stating "malicious web page http://73.60227"etc etc

Doesn't happen on any other web pages and I've cleared all my cache, history etc.
Any thoughts?

Been mentioned in another thread. A fix was attempted without success and it may be a while before the site owner checks in.

    I've added an new option into the update profile page to disable javascript. If you're getting this error, just select 'Disable JS', hit Submit and you should be OK.

    Looks to have cured it Ash, cheers. At least, from our end. I assume it'll be a pain to get rid of at source.

    It's a shame stuff like this happens. It's a smashing forum, annoys me that people jeopardise the safety of such things purely through greed. Don't care do they.

    For what it’s worth my work internet has now blocked this site, citing that it has detected crypto mining traffic from this website. Can’t use it at all now at work. Think this must be the same issue.
