just seen a malware warning from google come up

it appears that a web site

named soulxxxxxcellar dot co uk (xxx's added by myself)

has been picked up by google for spreading malware

as the member who runs it had posted about 300 different links over the years to it, google started issuing warnings for here because of the links to that site

there is no malware on here, there has been no malware on here

another site appears to be hacked or similar

and so the warnings were given because of the 300 odd links on here to that site

all links have just now been removed

and so there should be no threat

this can be checked via google search where warnings about other site soulxxxxxcellar dot co uk but not this one

Thank you Mike. I wondered what was going on since a few days ago when my anti-virus kept blocking the site.

I was beginning to wonder if it was a false warning from AVG but thankfully never went to the site by another route.

A great shame as it is one of my favourite sites.

Obviously something has gone amiss as I am sure as I possibly can be that the owner of the site would not be involved in anything dodgy.

Probably as you suggest, the site may have been hacked.

I sincerely hope he manages to get it sorted.
