Hi all.
I have not been on OPF much as my antivirus software keeps informing me oPF had got malware attached. Given my laptop is fairly new, I don't want to take any chances.
Has anyone else been getting warnings?
I am typing this on my iphone. Not sure this is any better from a security perspective. I know typing on the phone is tedious.

Well, only in the last week.
I have changed to a different anti virus software so I am leaning towards that identifying the issue. I am just unsure whether to ignore it or not. So far I am listening but that means no OPF. :-(

Hmm..Well, while this only appeared when I changed my anti-virus software, the warning only seems to appear when I use Google chrome as my browser. I am typing this using InternetExplorer and not getting the message. I am none the wiser. The message I keep getting is below: Danger: Malware Ahead! Google Chrome has blocked access to this page on ourparisforum.com. Content from www.prsitecheck.com, a known malware distributor, has been inserted into this web page. Visiting this page now is very likely to infect your computer with malware. ![]() [/img] |

That prsite check appears to be some Google device to see what you are doing there and your anti virus does not like it. I check these things in Google |

I heard from Sandy a few days ago, and she said she's not able to get on OPF anymore either since she switched to Google Chrome. That's sad! I wish there was something easy that could be done to fix this glitch--it's quiet enough on the forum these days without losing members because of that!!  |

What's with Google Chrome ? I'd hate to lose folks because of it when the rest of us seem to be doing all right  Looking for fascinating events in Paris in Feb now.......other than the Ballet, eating, cafe sitting.......window licking.... |

While you're at the Institut du Monde Arabe, Geordy, make sure you go up to the 9th floor terrace for the view if you haven't done that before. It's a great vantage point, and it's free! We like the restaurant up there, too.
Jody, the exhibit at the Cluny is in the Roman baths? I've only been there once, but don't think we got to see inside any of the actual Roman ruins. Or is part of the museum in them and I just didn't know it?? We have walked around the outside to see the Roman baths, but that's it. Is there more to see?

This is ridiculous! For the last few days I have been unable to get onto OPF as I kept getting a message from both Google Chrome and Mozilla that the Pro-baords are down.
I am typing this using Internet Explorer, so apparently there is no issue.
This is beyond frustrating! Has anyon else been having issues?

Hi, Mez -- I haven't had any malware issues, but the Err Bear shows up if you just type ourparisforum.com If you type WWW.ourparisforum.com, it loads normally. They've got a problem with their addresss resolutions, but they SWEAR they know about it and are working on it. Hope that helps! |
