Hello all,

This afternoon(in my time-zone) I tried to access the TGC website using the IE 9 and Google Chrome and both shown up a virus warning screen of the Norton Internet Security 2012 warning that access was denied because the existence of viruses on the site of TGC website the Trojan.ADH.

Researching the subject on Google titled "The gamecreators home" I got the results showing the TGC website as unsafe.

The screens with the warnings are in the picture attached.

I do not know if other people in this forum got the same issue here reported.

Regards,

Northern

Thats because your using Norton. Norton is a virus within its self. I suggest getting another Anti-Virus. Norton is Nortorious (see what I did thar?) for detected false positives and not detecting a real threat.

However, on the off chance it actually did work. It might have been an advertisment on their site. You see them on the forum to, and I have gotten multible attacks on my network from it.

Nope, I'm not getting any warnings.

I welcome any criticism you have that doesn't effect me. I used to think I was indecisive, but now I'm not so sure.

I get the warnings too. But I can just nuke the files from orbit if they try anything funny.

Make it so.

Sometimes the warning will pop up, because of someone's Avatar or Signature on a particular page/pages.
