    Default Just Received A Virus Alert

    My anti-virus software popped this information up when I was reading the board a moment ago. Just thought you might want to know. It said the virus was blocked from infecting my computer (thank goodness), and it shows the URL of the infection (probably from an ad?).

    Edit: I was clicking the thread about "Angle Play" templates in the main forum when it popped up.

    If you skip the emails and go straight to www.quiltingboard.com you will not get an error from your AV software.
    The report you get when you use the emails as your gateway is in error, but precisely why some AV programs get it wrong is still a tech mystery.
