Warning

[SeaWolf U-57]

Ok after last time I know I am going to regret this
but for those who might like to believe me when
I log into Subsim today my firewall came under attack
but once again my cheap crappy virus software (Nod 32)
stopped the attack in its tracks.
here is a pic of the attack



please take care at this time

PPs. and yes I know that some of you that also use Nod32 will not detect anything
that is because the attack has already been submittted and therefore will have no access to your system

SHMF has crash also attack address is shown as

Ok this might have not been from subsim but maybe a direct attack at SHMF and its members from well lets not say anymore for now

Although it happened when visiting subsim but my firewall might of already been blocking the attack and only showed the message while browsing Subsim ?????

Its not its just something someone once said about Nod32 .
its the best I have ever used and once again save me from a world of hurt

Avast! shows clear on my end.

As for NOD32 being crap, I can only say what I've heard about it and that is
that NOD32 is average in what it does. Tends to detect the most harmful
stuff, but also tends to let less harmful stuff through. Only used the thing briefly
some years back before switched to Avast! so can't really say anything from personal experience.

Its updated to version 5 now
it will only let through what you want it to
