    Google Malware warning on nissanpatrol.com.au forum.

    Google Malware warning on nissanpatrol.com.au forum.

    Last night there was a post relating to a Google Malware warning when members opened a certain introduction thread.

    I found a post in that thread that had been done ages ago, the member had tried to link a photo that was hosted on patrol4x4.

    Even though the link didn't work, the link was still there, hence the warning.

    I don't believe there was anything to worry about even if you ignored the warning and opened the thread

    But as always and 2 be on the safe side, virus and malware scan your computer if you did open the thread.

    Regards

    Todd

    Thanks Todd,

    It was just a warning for people not to click on the link to go to P4x4 as the site is still having issues. Nothing to worry about, this site is 100% clean and free of anything. Unfortunately there will be hundreds if not thousands of links from members in threads pointing to that site.

    Even if you clicked any links on this site to go to P4x4 Google or your browser will stop you anyway so it should be ok.

    If you are concerned then for sure run a scan on your computer but this forum is 100% fine and it would of been just a warning not to visit Patrol4x4 site as it contains malware, etc.

    Business as usual.....Cheers for the heads up Todd.
