Think the forum might be under attack

My anti virus software keeps picking up that a suspicious program is trying to download as I look at threads and post. Also some posts are coming up as a google 405 error?

It seems to have stopped happening. I did a scan, maybe it was my pc
No Dave got the same message and so did I on my wifes notebook. It only gives you the message once and it said something about microsoft help. I took a screenshot but it would not paste into word/email after I came off the forum. There was also an ip address mentioned 128.It seems to have stopped happening. I did a scan, maybe it was my pc
If anyone else gets th message please post it here.
Thanks,
Simon
My antivirus blocked the alleged "attack", but I did notice that the forums took a particularly long time to load, that time. Did anyone else notice that?
Forum's loading fine to me and did not observe anything funny from my antivirus. Has it stopped?
Yes Simon,
Its taking very long time to open the page.... I've never faced this problem earlier.
But rest ok...

Thanks for feedback, I'm doing a lot of work in the background with web hosts and forum software vendors to determine what the issue is.
I'm experiencing the slow down.
Please all members have you / are you experiencing any issues with forum, please say even if the answer is no. All feedback really helps.
Thanks,

Accessing via a mac today rather than a PC and no issues.
Fixed, safe and should be faster.

Hi.
Just logged on tonight for the first time for a day or so and all seems fine.
Nasty hacker people!
