Thanks for the heads up but there are no PC viruses or trojans on my site
The small delete cash utility I have recently learned flags some virus scanners but the file "DeleteCache" is clean. I make sure to scan all files uploaded to my site so I am sure they are safe. I understand about trusting someone you have never met especially on the net however my entire relationship with the Tank Simulation community is based on trust.
So anything that would undermine that foundation would bring me severer harm and I am dedicated to building a long term, good reputation. And
of course that takes work with the addition of going the extra mile. In
other words I will do what it takes.

Sincerely,

ZeeWolf

Oh, BTW Lazarus is one of my favorite men of the Bible. After being
raised from the dead, he was the only one that "they" plotted (on oath)
to murder along with Jesus.

Default Antivirus?

Lazarus 905, I am a Zee Wolf club member and I have been on his various sites many times and never once did my antivirus report any trojan or malware.There are 26 members in his club and Zw's website has been visited by hundreds or people.Nobody - except for you it seems - has ever reported any problems.

I think your mistrust in ZW is totally misplaced ; may be it's your antivirus that you should distrust?????

Guys,I have just visited ZW's site and I too am getting threat warnings.I never have done before.
I use AVG (paid version) and this is what it is telling me.Maybe this will help.

Now this may be an over-zealous AVG I don't know.It's not un-common to get false reports with anti-virus software etc.
As I said,I have visited many times before and never had any problems.
I have complete faith in ZeeWolf.I don't often hand over money to people I meet on forums but this guy is an exception.

Chucky, ZW , I tried accessing ZW's website from my 3 laptops, each using a different antivirus(AVG the free, basic version, Pandacloud and Norton).I received no virus alert or no warning or any kind. I suspect it's your AV which are being overzealous.Still let's wait and see fio others have reported a similar problem.

Could it be that somebody tried to access ZW's website to hack it or infect it?

Likewise I don't normally hand over money to just anybody and I gladly paid Zee Wolf because I was convinced that he is a straight and honest man.

As you say Frinik,it may well be a false result.I am also occasionally getting a similar threat from a commercial gaming web-site I use frequently.This is only since I used the paid version of AVG.

Default AVG

Chucky, my wife does not like AVG because she says that if often rejects downloads as potential threats.She says it tends to overreact.

Have you been using that AV for long or is it recent since you converted your OS to Win 7?

I've always used the AVG free edition for as long as I can remember,but I bought a licence about 6 months ago.

Just out of interest I booted to my XP drive which has the free edition AVG on it and I still got a hit on ZW's site

Anyway,I am sure he will have a look at that message I posted and see what's what.

Chucky.

I use AVG and have no problems. I downloaded and installed the Christmas present last night for the first time and had no problems running it. There are two things that need to be disable in AVG though. Unfortunately I'm at work (on a break of course) and cannot remember th names but there are surf protection type items. they block allot of applications so I keep them disabled. Ill post the details when I get home today.

Good Luck

Default In God we trust with ZW we thrust!

Hi Zee! Good to hear from you! Don't worry man we know you are not exploiting us!Didn't we rally our Zug around you to to shield you from bolschevik-inspired (the NKVD might be behind his ) attacks?

What are the cuties: a Marder III or the Hornisse?, a PAK 40 and is the last one a Sturmpanzer Brummbaer?

Cheers

Frinik; former Tiger commander relegated to Panzer I duty until further notice...

Hello Hammer_757,
The Foundation Membership allows you full access to my project Zeewolf creations for a full year. The membership after the Jan.31 deadline will be
limited and cost more for some things the Foundation Members are entitled
to. I must say too that this is all new to me and I have been playing it by ear so-to-speak as far as pricing goes. However membership will be offered again just prior to the new Kursk release plus the cost of the release.
I have not finalized the pricing yet but it will be a very good deal considering what is planned for the new resurrected T34 vs Tiger.

No need to sell it to me, I'm already sold, just let me know the price and when I can pay.
