blocked pages and malicious code

Is it just me or is any one else experiencing messages about malicious code and blocked pages when they try to access links from this weeks email?

And why is it getting later in the week? By the time I get it (this morning ) I have missed lots of goodies?

    I am getting every single forum index (apart from the overall forum index) blocked for "malicious code" by my employer's Finjan software.

    I've e-mailed the site webmaster about this a few times and got no response.

    There must be something within the forum index template which at least looks dodgy - is there any chance of someone actually looking at what's causing this problem and resolving it?

    Otherwise my navigation around the forums (whilst at work) is virtually impossible. :(

    Hmmm mines been fine all the way through, one or two little errors but no denial of service or security warnings...
    I don't know anything about Finjan - but I suppose it's possible they use a webreputation service similar to Trend Micro? If they do and something has changed then it might decide based on the changes that the page has not been stable long enough and deemed it "dodgy"?
    arouraira what AV do you use? and does the problem go away if you turn off the URl filter? And are you certain this is the genuine Martin mail and not the spoof scam mail that is going around (see thread further down on this board!)
