Sidc =Malware On Google?


Recommended Posts

HOPPED onto my google chrome and went to come to club site and this is what happened after i typed in www.sidc.co.uk into address bar and hit return.

anyone aware of this? never had it on normal google or internet explorer or firefox

The chrome issue has been fixed (was a link to a page on the Keith michaels site as opposed to malware - was flagged as suspicious code). It takes a while for the warnings to be removed.

If you go to http://forums.sidc.co.uk you'll not see the same error. It's down to the URL string being published via a php script. Like I say, all fixed now so should disappear soon.

The refusal of cookies, as discussed at the agm, still boots you out, for prospective visitors.

That's the law. Any site that uses cookies requires a cookie opt out. As you can't browse the site without cookies (as you need to log in), it throws you out. Same requirement of all UK sites that store user data.

At the agm it was discussed that you would be redirected to a landing page telling you about the club and more in depth cookie useage. This would give less educated new users the chance to accept the new regulations.

If selecting no it redirects to the forums

Should really direct to google as the forums use cookies too ;)

Which it itself would require cookies in order to ascertain what page they had come from... You see the issue?!?

I would suggest that you read up on cookies and the legal requirements if you wish to make changes.

Cookies and the chrome warning are two seperate issues. The post about cookies was a deviation from your OP - apologies for any confusion caused.
