    I keep getting the following message this evening when trying to access Boards pages.

    You attempted to access:
    http://www.boards.ie/search/submit/?query=glitches

    This web page is a known fraudulent web page. It is recommended that you do NOT visit this page.

    What's up? :confused:

    Just to follow up on my last post (whenever it gets approved); run an update on Norton, then do a quick scan. Mine picked up a bunch of tracking cookies. I'm no longer getting that irritating error message.

    Boards ran into some issues with OpenDNS over the weekend (seemingly, it was incorrectly being flagged as a phishing site), and that may have caused this knock on effect. All should be back to normal now though.

    How can I? User's guide to some features on the new site
