    Lets see you started threads on a directory going under, two with the words danger and directory in the title, another where you admitted to misrepresenting things to members only to delete that post - you clearly have an agenda.

    No No - no agenda, - just a warning about a website with a trojan, which was confirmed by another member. Yahoo used the word 'Danger', I merely copied and pasted what they wrote, and can be proven if you don't believe me.


    BTW, Mods are aware of your agenda of following me, my threads and posts.

    To be honest, one can't go through the directory forum without having to read one of your posts.

    Did even one of you think to perhaps try and contact the owner of the web directory and inform him/her about the problem?

    Or your all just prepared to sit here test it in your browsers and bitch about it on the forum?

    Think about it guys, after all it is a directory in our industry and whether we like it or not it represents us.

    Agreed, though this is not a new marketing methodology and can be trace back at least 4-5 decades ago.

    "Don't click," "don't visit," "don't look," etc. etc.

    "By any means or ciircumstances drink Kika Koka, it may lead to ecstasy"

    If this warning would be for real, open poster would explain why that site is causing problems instead of focusing on providing the URL and create the subliminal "not click (do it)" action message.

    You're not doing yourself any favours by chucking accusations about. Mods are definetely watching this thread and I'm shocked it's being allowed to continue.


    @ Spider

    Yes, I half agree Spider. But this can't be blamed on IE users, browser protection should be automatic, should it not?

    I hate it when sites do this kind of thing - I bet Boomdir don't even know an issue exists.

    More than likely Silky, and Boom dir is not representing me and I wouldn't want any association with a scum directory like that.

    That's correct. Just click on the name of the person in the forum post and go to add to ignore list.

    You claim to run web directories in which case whether you like it or not this web directory does represent you. If one customer goes to this web site and has a bad experience that customer will leave with a bad impression of directories as a whole which whether you like it or not affects us all.

    If opens an invisible iframe with src http://www.orentraff.cn/in.cgi?5

    They are trying to spam affiliate link clicks to an adult toplist, or something like that.
