    Default QRZ.com Phishing Risk?

    I've been getting warnings from my anti-virus program this morning every time I access QRZ.com that the site is a "known phishing risk".

    Anyone else getting that?

    Does make sense, it has it's share of trolls and trolls do like fish.

    Offhand, I'd say your anti-virus program is over-zealous.

    I've seen malicious content warnings on legit websites, but the source appears to be infected 3rd party ads that are supplied from other servers that may or may not be tainted.

    I have a cold so I know my anti-virus program doesn't work.
    i'm sorry you don't have the experience or understanding to realize that others possess a skill set that you seem to dismiss as fantastical.
