Could be an ad.
Could be content (pictures) hot-linked posted by another member and could be false positive.
Could be overly protective program or settings.
Not enough information provided. Need a link to a specific thread or page where the issue occurs. Need the exact error message displayed.
BTW, this does not mean CorvetteForum has a virus or anything like that.

With the way anti-virus programs try to make sure the end-user feels they are being protected by giving off alarms and/or the trend with ads being no good, this is probably more normal.
CorvetteForum doesn't have a virus. My best guess is there is an ad or two the program doesn't like, the settings are restrictive, or perhaps there is a bad ad. If the latter, no other reports have been made and we'd need much more information to continue.

No the Corvette Forum doesn't have a virus. Agreed.
But yes, Corvette Forum runs shitty and intrusive ad services.
Now I get an audible "low memory warning" and a redirect to Google Play when I visit pages with certain ads here. It's just the latest in a long trend of shitty ads.
This is really shitty. It's really lazy. And quit blaming it on the user or other causes. THIS **** ONLY HAPPENS HERE.
You might be able to explain this away to non-techies.... but us people who do this **** for a living know exactly what is going on... and that's a lack of giving a ****.

No, it doesn't "only happens here". CorvetteForum doesn't create those ads that you're speaking about. Those who are really in IT know, or any search online will show, this is a trend of "bad ads" and that it's a newer fight.
