I was just looking at the Dis through a browser on my phone and then this alert came up.

It came up when I posted a thread in the DVC section, and then again when I Posted this thread. It continued to come up every time I tried to access this thread on my mobile.
 
Bah! It's now happening in every thread I open. The only way around it is to add each individual thread I want to open to the safe list, which is crazy.

I'm not sure if it's just a problem with my phone, or if it's a trend micro problem...

I'm going to try restarting to see if that helps at all.
 
Something keeps interfering when I'm on the DIS too lately and I wonder if this is it? I keep getting an alert that a problem is causing my page to close and reopen and once the message said that a malicious add-on is causing it. I have scanned and rescanned and it only happens on the DIS for some reason.
 

That makes me feel a little bit better, knowing that it's not just me.
 
I am having issues as well. Not on the app, but new spyware/malware on the site is causing some issues for sure.
 
I work for a major fortune 500 company and they actually banned/blocked the DISboards last week listing it as a phishing/malicious website. WDWinfo is still fine, but something on the DIS is triggering my companies phishing/virus firewall
 
It's happening to me too. Not only is my anti-virus software catching it, but my wireless router's safe surfing tool is catching it as well. Seems like the pwoers that be here need to check things out.
 
This also happened to me yesterday when I was on Disboards. My antivirus detected something malicious. I let the issue be fixed and since then have only accessed the boards from my ipad without issue except for the app being really slow! I give up!

I also work for a huge company, just not fortune 500. I have been able to go onto the disboards for years and years, but just a few weeks ago it became blocked by our IT Department because it is a website known for phishing. Unfortunate for me, but my productivity sure has increased at work. :p
 
I'm having new problems today. A page that says that my software might be out of date keeps popping up and again only when I'm on the DIS. It's annoying.

Well, glad to see I wasn't the only one and it looks like TheDis made some changes. Everything appears to be okay now.
