Recently i have had a problem with accessing the forum caused by McAfee. It started on one laptop i use, and when I tried to access forum it came up "No internet access, check cables or may be firewall blocking". Found that if I turned off firewall or pressed "Restore defaults" then could access. After a few days "Restore Access" did not work, though could still access after dropping firewall. That was for this site only, and my other computer was unaffected, so I was not too worried. Now the same is happening with my other laptop. At moment can get back by pressing "Restore defaults", but worry that this may stop working , as it did on first machine.
Anyone more techno-savvy than me got any ideas to solve the problem?

Hi chemimike hope you get it sorted we need you on the site with your input all the best.

McAfee could be registering the site as a "false positive" due to some problem with the site security certificate.

Is there a way of informing McAfee, within the programme?

Mebbee it is due to all the COLONS floating about.

Norton's anti virus sometimes advises me not to open SL but I choose to ignore the advice and override it.

A bit of colonic irrigation may be needed .

PS. I use Norton and that sometimes states there is a problem when I want to open posts that seem to have been made before the last work on the SL site (that after which many images were lost, hopefully not permanently).
