I do the same. I edit and edit and edit .... and eventually start talking to myself.

Just so we don't all come across as marauding business wreckers if 4uall.co.uk wishes to comment directly on this issue, this snippet is taken from the Forum Guide.

How do I get a right of reply on what's been said about my company?
If you're from a company, have seen a post you feel is defamatory or offensive and would like the right of reply please email the Forum Team at [EMAIL="forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com"]forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com[/EMAIL] to ask.
A member of the MSE Team will carry out checks to confirm that you are authorised to represent the company in question.
Provided you have authority to represent your company, you may either be asked to give a statement, which one of the MSE Team will post on your behalf in reply, or be given permission to post directly on the specific thread.
Where permission has been given for you to post directly on a thread, a note from the MSE Team will appear on the thread confirming this.
If someone has posted claiming to be from a company but this has not been followed by a MSE Team note confirming authorisation please use the warning triangle in the bottom right of the post to report it, or email the link to [EMAIL="forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com"]forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com[/EMAIL].
There is one, single exception to this rule. If you're from a company and have a discount code you'd like to offer MoneySavers this rule is waived in the Great Want to Offer MoneySavers a Discount? Hunt. You can post your discount once only, on that thread but nowhere else on the forum and shouldn't post about your company anywhere else on the forum.

I'd pop that on their FB page but I'm not a user. It's a new year, maybe we should all have a re-read of the Forum Guide as a resolution

Never read the forum guide - check.

Virus scanners can give false positives.
I think it's good practise to warn if your scanner gives a hit as, otherwise, the competition OP could be trashed for sending people to a site hosting malware.
If the site wants people's business, then a warning to them could let them contact Avast who can then look at what's setting off their scanner.

I'd rather be aware that something has created an alert than have my computer damaged by an avoidable issue.
