Not sure if others have posted this before but I found this entertaining:

Tigtorch,

It worries me that with both of your links a flashing warning tells me I have a Windows error; and an invitation to 'click here'.

No other link I have used on this site (or any other) does that.

Can anyone else confirm this is happening to them ?

Dave.

Doug's site is safe enough, but he has been trying out some.new.ads that may be triggering the warning;)

The single link as currently posted works perfectly for me without adverts or odd messages.

Running a MAc with OS 10.6.8, Sophos anti-virus, and the Safari browser with the pop-up blocker engaged.

Worked well in Firefox with Adblock plus (and pop-up addon). Haven't tried it in Google Chrome or IE (and have no intention to either)

Working fine now,  I haven't changed anything.  The warning has gone.
