Default Trojan horse on Passion ford???
My Norton Anti virus keeps on flashing up with...

"SECURITY ALERT"

"Norton Internet Worm Protection has detected and blocked an intrusion attemp"



This only happens when im on PassionFord? Ive had it poppin up for the last 24hrs????

Anyone else gettin this? Or is it just me?

Could well be that - you have to add www.passionford.com as a friendly site

He means if you have a firewall on your anti-virus software then it will pick up that the site is trying to launch a popup and will try and block it and flag it up to you, when you add it as a friendly site it should work fine.

Can't help much more as I haven't used the software you have.

Cheers,

Andy
