My Mcafee keeps popping up a banner on the top of the screen saying the page has been tested and there is suspicious content that has been blocked. Does this mean anything to anyone, could there be a problem?

Hmm I keep getting a yellow strip at the bottom of my screen saying 'only secure content shown' click on this to show all content! I just delete it on the little X in the top corner box. I tend to delete anything I think is suspicious and hope I'm right!

Is it any particular page? It's usually on the new posts area.

Do you have an ad blocker, if not then it could be an advert. Could you take note of what ads are showing?

Has this just started recently? The main things is Mcafee is doing its job and blocking whatever it is. A nuisance none the less.

I understand what you mean. Does Mcafee give any information as to what was found? or a way to get more information?
As it is I don't think any nasties are being spread to the forum pages otherwise there would be many posts about it. I have an adblocker/tracker blocker that would inform me if there was any, hopefully.

Without further information as to what is being blocked then I'm unable to help, sorry. As I say, if there was a nasty being spread then I think more would post about. We will have to see if anybody else has the problem.

I'm sorry to take so long to reply, I didn't see this.
As far as I am aware there is not a problem, so I am not sure why this is happening.
