    Default Blocked by Avast

    Just FYI - Blocked from message board the last two days by Avast software. Claimed GSUFANS.Com was infected by virus. Problem cleared this afternoon. Was there a problem?

    We've done a full server/database scan, everything is showing clear now. I've also gone in and blocked a few advertising categories that align with advertisers who I suspect have some sketchy ads.

    Apparently Google Ads has changed the category structure, as I formerly had several blocked. When I went in and reviewed the current status, nothing was blocked.

    I received the email from Google that they have reviewed the site and found everything OK, and have lifted the warning. It may take, per them, up to 72 hours to cycle through various servers. I received that notification about 20 hours ago, so it should be clearing up soon.

    What??? you told Google what you wanted for your site and then they decided to change it to what they wanted even though it's not what you wanted it to be?? And the only way to discuss problems are via email. I'm shocked! {/sarcasm}

    I still can't get on the site from my computer. Anybody else's still having a problem?
