Today I followed up this tweet, having been there for a decent celebration at the weekend and knowing the area a bit ...
"ABC Eyre Peninsula @1485ABCEP RT @EmmaPeds: Photos tell history - my latest blog for #ABCOpen #nat2 Now & Then project - #Eyre Peninsula #TumbyBay http://bit.ly/II62P8 " so I went to the web site mentioned ... which was this one http://open.abc.net.au/posts/photos-...istory-79by3ob and from there I followed up their further link suggestions. 1) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_News_%28Adelaide%29 2) one labelled "Tumby Bay " 3) another lebelled the museum which was here ... http://www.nationaltrustsa.org.au/in...branch_museum/ My question is about what happened when I clicked on the one labelled " Tumby Bay". The website is tumbybay.com and avira went mad warning of some virus or malware. I had no way of knowing if it was a false positive or not, just clicked on "I amnot going there" and left a message on the above page asking THEM to check it out. Is there a procedure I could have followed without being at risk of nasties or is it just as well to steer clear. I'd love to have had a look, but am a bit overcautious I gues. Is this the sort of thing that could go into a techtalk wiki, or is every case different? Thanks |

Avira was correct to bring up a warning. I use Chrome and Chrome brings up the warning page before antivirus picked it up. |

one labelled "Tumby Bay" It said the site was infected with a Trojan "JS:Redirector-NW [Trj]", and wouldn't let me open it. So I didn't go there, either. |
