This happens 1 week.

This has been happening for one week?

Do you have any virus security apps or programs on your phone? If so, what is the name of it?

Yes

Ok... I went on your site from my phone, to see if I would get any alert. I did not, so maybe its just your end. Did you run your device through a scan and/or check its flagged sites list to see if your site was on it?

I did not understand what you're saying.

It sounds like you have a virus on your phone. Have you run your anti-virus program on your phone?

by smurfavr Sun Jul 05, 2015 8:18 pm

To run an anti virus program every day.This problem occurs only on sites I gave in my previous post.

by **brandon_g** Sun Jul 05, 2015 8:34 pm

Well have you tried un installing the virus security, clearing your cache and cookies and then reinstalling it?

by smurfavr Sun Jul 05, 2015 8:47 pm

I scrubbed cookies. I AM NOT uninstall my program.
As I said this happens in only 2 site forumotion.

by **SLGray** Sun Jul 05, 2015 9:19 pm

If you are the only one seeing this message, then it means that your phone is infected. You need to clean it of any viruses.

by smurfavr Sun Jul 05, 2015 9:22 pm

I run every night programs to clean the phone.
If an infected phone why this problem occurs only in the two site forumotion?

by **SLGray** Sun Jul 05, 2015 9:26 pm

When you run this scan, are there any finds? It could be that the program is not detecting the virus.

Also that message you get could be a fake virus alert. I have encountered fake virus alerts on my desktop. Never press anything on the message.

by smurfavr Sun Jul 05, 2015 9:28 pm

Sometimes it is a virus and deleted. Today scanned and no virus.

by **brandon_g** Sun Jul 05, 2015 10:57 pm

The reason I said to uninstall and re install it, is because I think your virus program might have for some strange reason flagged your site on some kind of alert list. By TEMPORARILY uninstalling the program so that way whatever is causing it to flag your site will be removed or reset, then you can reinstall back again immediately after again. I wasn't suggesting uninstalling for good lol. Would never do such a thing :p.

Instead of uninstalling the program, check to see if your forums are listed on any kind of list in the program.

I do not know how to do this.

by **SLGray** Mon Jul 06, 2015 6:24 pm

I do not believe this has anything to do with lists. I believe you have a virus/viruses on your phone that has not been removed, or you are getting a fake virus alert.

by **brandon_g** Mon Jul 06, 2015 6:35 pm

Well either way, if he ran a virus scan and it found no viruses then it can't be a virus. Whether it's a list or fake list or not, we can't know for sure.

All I am saying is, temporarily uninstalling the program, clearing your cache and cookies and then immediately reinstalling the program might help solve the issue. Worth a try, otherwise I would say you might just have to put up with or ignore it.

I don't think there is much more we here on the support forum can do other than making suggestions, which I have made mine above.

Smurf I hope your issue works out and gets resolved. Very Happy

I will ignore virus warnings and wait in that way to see if there is a problem.

by **Ape** Mon Jul 06, 2015 8:47 pm

just to add you can do a search on Google to find out how to see what is listed in your virus security

It should then give you a step by step on how to find the sites that are blocked and how to remove them or add it in the safe list,

Also calling the makers of your virus security can help by asking them to remove your sites from there database.
