  Do you have the option to add URL's as "acceptable" to your security program? You might try that... Not sure what, at BP proper, could be suddenly causing a hiccup. I was able to pull up your site just fine from my laptop.

  Hey Chris, seems the "threat" has been removed from my site.. I did not do anything other than email my security software Webroot... No contact from them, but I can now go to my website and not get that popup....
Thanks again for responding!

  OK guys, strange things are happening! I had an email from BetterPhoto last nite saying that someone made my image a favorite. I clicked on the site and responded with Thanks, etc.
This am when I checked my emails, I had 500 emails from BetterPhoto saying the same thing. I deleted them all without opening them, but have recieved almost the same amount just in the last hour.
Help!

  Looks like spam in the QnA..maybe from your site with the threat thing. Better wait and see what else develops or for some techie to respond.

  Those emails you have received today are a totally different thing then the first issue you asked about.

For the uploader, some browsers give warnings like that, but the uploader is fine.

For the emails, BetterPhoto is currently under attack from another stupid spambot program. I have to shut down commenting until I can find a better captcha system to stop these automatic submissions.

Thanks,
Jim
