    I run Malwarebytes and for a while I’ve been getting a message that this site is unsafe to continue on to. I’ve ignored it. Today, my laptop now has a virus. Never got that warning anywhere else.

    Three straight days, the site's down for me until evening. What's going on?

    I'm on here pretty consistently during the day and haven't had any issues.

    Actually, it's my work PC. They apparently blacklisted the URL.

    Sorry, just now seeing this. Yeah, there can be issues. Sorry about the virus. I'm on here regularly and so far, nothing, but that's not to say we don't have issues.

    Likely because there is no https:// at the front.

    I'm on my work computer and I work for a large city that takes tech pretty seriously and it hasn't banned me -- yet.

    Which will be this site’s ultimate demise unless it’s remedied.

    Just sent Jeff another email to point out more people seeking access and raising the Malwarebytes/virus alarm.

    And an update. Jeff wrote me back this afternoon.

    I have not forgotten about you, I am working on trying to get someone else who can help on the tech side of things, as that is going to be a more scalable solution long-term if I am not the bottleneck.

    So ... hopefully soon.

    I might be kinda screwed here.

    I can access the site here on my phone. But on my laptop, a login results in a message that cookies must be accepted.

    I did nothing to prevent cookies from being accepted. So I don't know what to do.

    Occasionally work will block this place. I assume it’s a trigger word of some sort in the topic and the URL.
