    hey, i've been in the IT trade a long long time.

    Symantec are misreporting. You can even be brave enough to try going to the folder it mentions on there. it doesnt exist.

    You should go and watch that video! They would eat you for dinner!

    go check wikipedia and search on "orbital loopz". Then look at 2nd external link.

    If you use symantec/norton then you will get lots of misreports. My website has been online for a long long time. go check internic. go check loopz dot co uk as well as that is also the same website.

    then go view the video :P
  • My norton NIS package also reports the site as dodgy with a drive-by thingy
    I suggest you contact Norton to get them to re-check the site and remove the block if they approve it.

    Then you obviously need more experience and knowledge. Go and investigate further and i will be here waiting to hear that that symantec will be the only one MISREPORTING.

    good, then go troll someone else.

    I can't believe we try, do something worthwhile for the public and we get so called experts still using the "mcdonalds" of anti-viruses trying to squash our good cause. please widen your experience and stop being linear. If you really think that Symantec/Norton is the best advice for you then quit IT and stop kidding the world you are a techie. Rant over :p
