Virus?

**machado4** · 05-02-2009

My friend told me that there might be spyware, from your site, and he got it. he knows because hes dad works in computers. Is there anything like spyware or a virus on the site that might effect my computer?

it could be that your antivirus is recognizing cookies stored from this site as spyware. what antivirus do you have if you dont mind me asking.

I've come here several times a day for the last year of two? *shrug* Anyway, if there was something to be gotten I would have had it by now. :P

I trust PCN. Same can't be said for the pop-ups but hey, I think we all not to click on them. ;p

Impossible that there is a virus on the server... so the site does not have a virus. If there were to be any spyware and such ... it would be because of the ads (popups and 728x90 ads). If you do get notified about a virus, please take a screenshot and email it to webmaster@ps3center.net. Thanks!

you must've done something new with the popups because now they're infiltrating firefox and it's causing a bit of havoc for me :(
