Wow!!! What's going on

Vancleave, MS(Zone 8b)

over at BYC. I tried to go in and my computer won't let me now. It is saying it is a Known Attack Site

"This web page at www.backyardchickens.com has been reported as an attack page and has been blocked based on your security preferences.

Attack pages try to install programs that steal private information, use your computer to attack others, or damage your system.

Some attack pages intentionally distribute harmful software, but many are compromised without the knowledge or permission of their owners."

Really strange as I posted to a thread earlier

Any one else's Anti Virus/Spyware on their computer doing it now??

Los Gatos, CA

Yeah, I got the same message. Then I got a page that said they were having a problem at BYC, and they are working on it.

Too bad.

whew scared me. Glad it is something that can be fixed

Los Gatos, CA

Yeah, but I wonder how we will know it is safe to go on again?

It was probably done by that person who is bidding against me for those hatching eggs! LOL!
