I've been having issues with my photobucket account. Seems that I get some virus problems that I have to run a scan to delete. I wasn't sure where the problem was coming from at first but today a large screen comes up saying "This site has been reported unsafe." I tried finding a place to e-mail them but seem to be missing it. Has anyone else had a problem or had their virus scanners pic up trojans?

Are you bragging, or complaining?

Wrap it up tight, you don't need to catch any viruses.

Haven't had a virus problem on Photobucket yet Duff ! I have only
had an account for a couple of months though and most of the photos
are mine and not that many others. A couple of years ago however, I
had picked up a real bad virus from a desktop wallpaper site ! Photobucket Unsafe??? Icon_eek It
was so bad that a system restore of some type had to be done. Maybe
sometimes certain images or pictures can contain viruses ! Still haven't
picked any up on my Mcaffee or Spysweeper though as of late ! Thanks
for the warning sir ! Photobucket Unsafe??? Icon_smile

Photos are cropping up as the new main concern for these things. ProBoards got hit with a huge trojan infection via photos for its inserted ads on free boards last month. Many users of WTW were hit that way. Ads were taken down for a while, up and reinfecting, and then down again. Not sure why this is more of a problem suddenly.

Seemed OK yesterday but I just went there and got a "Trojan Removed" notification from MaCafee.
I'll stay away for a while.
