yes the images are from the warning it gave me .



it seems when I click the WoW link at the top of the homepage it redirects ( or wants to ) to the gravee address...which avast stops...gives the warning and waits for me to select abort connection. Once I abort connection it then connects to the WoW page with no issues.

Thanks for the replies , I will search my system for any evils.
But it may be something going after the site...I posted so Tiger could see it and take a look if he needed to.

yep, Tiger is probably gone off somewhere for the holiday, I'm sure he'll look into it once he's go time. I'd never heard of avast and its swashbuckling response had me curious as to if it were real.

I've used the free home edition of avast for a few years now . Have no complaints about it at all.

Several nice programs I use are...

avast home edition anti virus
iobit advanced system care
iobit security 360
iobit smart defrag
malwarebytes

haven't had any complaints with any of these at all.
all run ( except malwarebytes )24/7
and when i'm in the game and I have no lag hits unless antivirus happens to autoupdate then
I get a few seconds of jitter but no biggy

S!~ All,

Please accept my apologies. At one time I was trying to use a script from gravee.com in order to resize the stats pages. The remnant has been removed and your machine should now be safe again.

I do appreciate the "heads up". This may look like a commercial site, but it definitely is not a commercial site. And, I don't want any adrevolver, doubleclick, gravee, or anything else installed on our computers. So, if you see anything else that is suspicious, please let me know right away.
