If I use firefox it lets me in if I click ignore, if I use internet explorer it tries to download a application, which I decline.

I have bitdefender total internet security and it has not warned me about any trojan software.

I am guessing that this site is hosted on a server with someone else who has used a trojan on their site and google has rejected all the sites that sit on that server from the messages that google has given on trying to find out more

I've decided only to login by phone to be on the safe side as I do tend to err on the side of cautious on a lot of things. I will wait for Admin to hopefully post the problem is solved before I try and post via my PC or daughter's laptop x

I did a full scan of my system with everything yesterday and it came up with nothing at all.

I think as long as you exit out from the rogue application, you should be ok.

Hi
My McAfee protection has given the site a green tick so all seems fine now.
We do have sophisticated protection for the site

I don't come through Google, I have straight links to this site and the bankruptcy site and yesterday my virus and firewall protection were saying that both sites were trying to download a trojan horse to my computer. Seems ok today but was this an outside attempt on these 2 websites or was it something done by admin????

No, it wasn't admin. Why on earth would they do anything like that?

I had contact with admin yesterday, so I know it was nothing to do with them.
