Hi James and CathyML. I don't get any of this nonsense as I sign on, or search for POE on Google so I don't know why you are James! I still say download the following AVG anti-virus, it is very good and its FREE as are ongoing updates! Perhaps thats why I am not seeing it? http://free.avg.com/us-en/download-avg-anti-virus-free

But since they changed that there hasn't been anything further. (I have Bit-Defender anti virus by the way and it seems very good) Edited by: Toby Craig at:17th February 2011 12:45 |

B.......s shouldn't be allowed to get away with it, money versus the small guy all the time. I reckon it's even worse because they fail to give a reason for flagging up POE as a security risk in the first place. I wonder how many potential new members, bookings, donations, searches etc POE has lost because of it? That said I am pleased you have resolved the matter Chris/Sarah. |
