I think i know why it was put as spam i think, if one of the admins can pm me. It is fixed and shouldn't be spam.

Your site has been added in the word filter becouse it has a installer, which tries to download to Your computer.

Board rules:
"It is not allowed to link to websites that contain malicious content (this includes scripts) or excessive pop-ups."

I went to His site and it&#39;s gone now, we added this in the word filter a week ago or so. People complained about this in PM.

Here&#39;s one cutted down:

"has a link to a forum called [spam] which I found to contain aggressive popups asking people to install spyware made by addictivetechnologies.net, which contains NetPal. The popup only appears when using Internet Explorer, but I&#39;m concerned that other members may click on the link in xxxx&#39;s signature and get their computer infected."

Yeah [b][o][t], that is what i am saying. That was some stupid idea that the person that accualy owns my site to make money. I complained to him about it and he took it out. Now he pays with his own money and there isnt any pop-up asking to install spyware anymore.

Can you please remove it from the list, seeing i never spammed with it, and that thing is gone. Please, i havent had any problems here and dont want to ruin it for me.

Why don&#39;t you try purchasing your own site rather than allow unscrupulous web hosts to do such things? If you have purchased this site (rather than a free account) I recommend switching.

Glad to see FST is so content on protecting the interest of it&#39;s members. Maybe your team should come out with an Av as well.


What a joke. I still say censorship on this board sucks&#33; But then again, who gives a shit&#33;
