Be careful if you're going to search for photos on photobucket.
Three days in a row now Norton AV has blocked a "High Risk" virus from intruding. ![]() It doesn't happen when I'm signed in to my photo album, just when I'm searching for pics. Just a heads up! ![]() |

Yeah it happens from time to time on PhotoBucket (and other sites) and the virus can even be attached to certain PICS - so when you view them the virus opens up on your computer.

If you have virus protection, it should block any attempt. You might want to run your anti-virus software just to make sure you're ok.

Yep...always update that antivirus!! When dowloading, always scan the file before opening too! That saves a lot of heartache for sure.
One thing I wish photobucket would do is upgrade their servers to catch the viruses in the uploads coming into the server. That would save us all a lot of headaches. Maybe we should send them letters expressing just that to them and tell them we won't use their services if they don't keep up with the times??? ![]() Hugsss sabby |

I have to agree with you, Sabau. You would thin photobucket would do something to catch it on the front end when it is uploaded.
Thanks for the reminder Petunia. I think I have it covered but I need to check it out just for peace of mind. |

DO you have and use a Spy Ware as well...... they catch a lot of computer intrusion up front., and FAST!
P.S. To anyone that uses Verizon as your ISP - you get their FREE PROTECTION (that is awesome) when you install MSN on your computer....... protection & MSN are both FREE!! |
