    If you have received a warning whilst visiting this site, we are aware of this notice and the following message has been posted on GC by the site owner...

    Some **** has posted a link to a picture on one of those ****ing porn sites, and that porn site is hosting malware so we are guilty by association. No harm can come to anyone on this site, but still going to be a night mare finding it.

    Edit...
    Site Update:

    Malware Warning: Some of you may have noticed that this site has been marked as containing viruses or Malware. Unfortunately some websites were linked to on our site which contain Malware (note that no Malware was ever hosted on our site) and we've been implicated by association. The links to these sites have now been removed and the warning should be removed very soon after the site gets rescanned. Thanks for your patience.

    I noticed that yesterday as my virus protection blocked me against the website as it said there is a virus and it is your own risk if you enter so I didn't

    HOADIE - Sorry but you will find that is technically incorrect.

    No one's virus checker should have kicked in because there was not a virus, we were merely linked by association therefore google put up the warning against our site. Hence there was a link within that message and if you wished to continue to enter the site, you could have done so and I personally did - although I accept it is better to er on the side of caution for those unsure on the aspects of these IT issues.

    If your virus checker kicked in then you have completely separate issues.

    I hasten to add, my own anti virus did not active, also I have a separate malware checker, that takes over several hours to run and I can confirm my computer was completely clean - also bearing in mind, that I probably spend more time on here than most (excluding yourself - lol).

    I am aware many other mods ran checks and personally activated their own virus checkers and to my knowledge no problems were found.

    I can confirm the issue was rectified by the site owner, also some additional precautions have been put in place.

    I explained it a bit wrong, all it done was come up with a warning message, which said this website could be unsafe, it is your own choice to enter.
