Earlier today I tried to visit these august forums but Firefox would not let me.  I got a message saying, "Reported Attack Site!"  I was eventually able to get Firefox to ignore the warning, but even then it was not displaying the site correctly, and it was not until I completely disabled Firefox's blocking capability that the site displayed correctly.  Did anyone else recently experience anything like this while visiting these forums?

<br /><br />There is a whole thread on it in the Website Feedback section.  It does the same thing in Chrome, and many of us are using IE (ugh) until it is resolved.

<br /><br />I had the same problem all day yesterday.  Looks like it has finally resolved itself.

<br /><br />Doug fixed it, it appears that someone got ahold of an FTP account and pushed a bit of bad javacode onto the site.  Check out the Website feedback forum for more info.
