This may sound ridiculous. You probably don't believe me. But I'm serious. This is not a joke. I decided to visit Forum:How do you imagine other users? (Fifth year anniversary) and my Antivirus said the page had detected malware on the webpage!!!!

I'm to scared to go back on it. You may want to check it out. I use McAfee so my Antivirus isn't false. I just wanted to warn everyone. - LOL vandalz

I saw it too. NOOOOOO! --~  18:08, March 10, 2011 (UTC)

It that image link was generating the warning. I went ahead and removed the offending image. --Mn-z 22:12, March 10, 2011 (UTC)

Which image did you remove? --~  07:47, March 11, 2011 (UTC)

Check the history, I don't recall exactly what is was. It was from some website that was flagging most anti-spyware sites. --Mn-z 12:38, March 11, 2011 (UTC)

I don't want to see it cause I'm too scared to do that but I know it's RabbiTechno's fault. I knew it. The jews are here to destroy uncyclopedia. --~  12:47, March 11, 2011 (UTC)

OMG mimo&maxus you better be careful, you don't want to get banned for Facism (ΘεΘ;) - LOL vandalz

But Mimo, how do you explain that SS unform that you wear while having sex? Or that swastika above the words "I LOVE HITLER" tattooed on your arse? Eh? Nazi! Rabbi Techno kvetch Contribs FOXES 16:24, March 11, 2011 (UTC)

Facists aren't welcome here. However, Fascism, Nazism, National Socialism, and other related ideologies are perfectly acceptable 卐卐卐 --Mn-z 16:39, March 11, 2011 (UTC)

Facists are scum - what's the point in being prejudiced against someone just because they have a face? Rabbi Techno kvetch Contribs FOXES 16:41, March 11, 2011 (UTC)

isn't facism and nazism the same? --~  18:43, March 11, 2011 (UTC)

Facism and Nazism are totally different. However, Nazism is often classified as a sub-type of Fascism. --Mn-z 17:22, March 12, 2011 (UTC)

Logical explanation

I think I know the problem, because I'm hearing a lot about just this sort of thing on other sites. Embedded advertisements. Most of them use JavaScript for fancy animations and crap, but certain people like to use that capability to do what's called a drive-by download, where the very act of loading a page causes a background download, usually adware or viruses. Antiviruses with real-time protection and browser integration, such as Microsoft Security Essentials, are pretty good at catching shit like this. And if you're really paranoid (and you also use Firefox), try AdBlock, or at least NoScript. Both of them will keep ad-based and other types of untrusted JavaScript from running (and AdBlock will obviously block you from viewing the ad itself as well). Unfortunately, NoScript is kind of high-level technobabble needed to run it. 134.39.58.33 16:53, March 11, 2011 (UTC)

The IP uses several long words. That's enough to convince me he's right. Rabbi Techno kvetch Contribs FOXES 16:58, March 11, 2011 (UTC)

What's a "scamera"? Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 09:31, March 12, 2011 (UTC)

I think it means: " Cathy's camera " - LOL vandalz

A camera used to perpetuate scams, I think. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 15:43, 12 March 2011

I think it's pretty obviously a scam era. As in an era of scams. Although it could be SCA Mera(someone named Mera from southern California.) (talk) 08:32, March 13, 2011 (UTC)

You use McAfee! That's almost as bad as Norton. MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 16:43, March 12, 2011 (UTC)

I use Grandma. When I go to click on something, I ask her, and she tells me not to. Except for pages on Uncyclopedia, for some reason. She's fine with those. I think it might be time to have her put down. Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 00:48, March 13, 2011 (UTC)

Oh, lucky you... my Grandma expired years ago. 1234 ~ 05:06, 13 March 2011

She's not my grandma. That explains why she's always trying to leave, probably. Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 07:31, March 13, 2011 (UTC)

Well, she's the one you're using... where'd you get her, anyhow? 1234 ~ 08:29, 13 March 2011
