Virus detected

[Its a Plant]

People, people, PLEASE look around before posting another thread on the subject. This one makes....40 or so.

There are plenty of threads discussing the issue, but in short, get a pop-up blocker and you will have no problem. Or as Psycho4Bud says, you always have the option of not logging in, to a FREE community, no less.

Refer here for your pop-up-discussion needs.

This one's pretty much useless so it will be closed. Peace. :jointsmile:

Its a Plant Reviewed by Its a Plant on 11-13-2007. Virus detected Somebody asked users to post circumstances when a virus is detected. I'm using Firefox, I hadn't "logged-in", I clicked on "Today's Posts", I tried to click on the poll " Go to first new post Poll: do you use cologne/perfume/body sprays, etc?" but it wouldn't open and just defaulted to that error page, my AVG detected a trojan so I "healed" it.

Ok Im new to this site and yesterday i finally got a sat. isp., and gave up the dial up. Now when i go to the main page of this site, ya know with forums with all the ads. My pop up blocker goes crazy ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding...etc etc...

WTF? how come it never did this when i have dial up. I got anti virus anti spy pop up blocker firewall all that jazz.

But all of a sudden i cant access this site without gettin screwed. I hopi i can get this figured out.:wtf:

Hello again. seems my last post got moved to closed thread. seems kinda rude to me . oh well. I am havin problems with pop ups on this site. It was fine when i was using my dial up modem. now i got a wild blue satelite connection and I use a current version of the following.

stopzilla pop up blocker
f secure anti virus-anti spyware
windows fire wall

Honestally i dont have problems with this site until my high speed internet got installed. Nor do any other sites i visit give me problems. I am just wondering if others have overcome this obstacle. It makes it really annoying to use this site which is awesome and soo foll of information.

Anyways before i ramble any farther .. any inpuut?

just a note to my previous post.

My pop up blocker works. but every time it blocks a pop up it chimes. Ding ding ding... over and over fast.

maby i need to ditch stopzilla for a better program.
hmm..

I use Opera 9. I never get popups.

Turn down the volume on your speakers.......the ding, ding, ding won't annoy ya so much.

Not meaning to be rude but this thread isn't a "feedback" question or a "suggestion".....make your pop-up blocker request threads in the computor forum. As for the pop-up issue.....it has been hashed over and over in this forum. Please do some reading.

Have a good one!:jointsmile:

Whichever popup is set to pop up upon first entering the site carries a trojan. I am on my brothers computer and he has windows live onecare, and every time I come to this site, it picks up another trojan immediately. Thankfully his computer takes care of it every time, but other computers that I use dont.


I am curious... has this issue been presented to the Cannabis.com moderators or webmasters yet? If so... why does this problem persist? If not.. will something be done about it?


This is by far my favorite website, and pretty much the only reason I go on the internet. I actually spend three hours a day at the damned library to post on these forums, and I know alot of people who are just as dedicated if not much more so.

It almost feels like the whole experience is cheapened when I cant even log in because the popup blocker is so busy trying to block popups, that I cant even enter text into the god damn log in box. Not to mention the fact that its laced with a trojan and god only knows what else.


Well, Im sorry if this seems like a complaint... that was not my purpose. I simply enjoy this website too much to see it destroyed by the same downfalls that have preceded the destruction of other popular websites. Popups laced with trojans and viruses are a sure way to lose good members, and prevent the onset of more good ones.

Thanks for listening.. to all the mods here I think you guys are doing an excellent job.

Peace and delta9 grease.

yeah got the same problem here..got to the site earlier and then all of a sudden i had a trojan being picked up by my anti virus.

[rebgirl420]

I think P4B or Itsaplant is going to pop a vein in their heads after seeing this thread. Every other day there are threads that say this and every time the mods close it and tell people that.

Lol I can just imagine them poppin' a vein and keeling over, like the 'gas man' did in dumb and dumber movie when harry and loyd put peppers in gas mas sandwich at the gas station lol then gave him rat poison
