I started getting this warning when accessing this forum a couple of days ago. It comes up every time I chnge the page. It does not happen with any other website.

My work laptop has Symantec stuff put on it and it is this that gives the warning. I can still access the site on my phone.

Anyone got any ideas?

jscoinminer is a wider term for a bitcoin mining script which runs in javascript and in ads, hidden iframes, etc.

more than likely you have a bit of malware that needs removing - doubtful it's related to this site

I disabled JS and all seems well now. Thanks for the tip. Now I need to solve the flickr photo upload problem and I'll be sorted.
