I have received a complaint from a couple of members. I notified the owners of the site but have not heard anything back from them. I have not experienced any difficulties logging on myself. You might try logging on with another search engine and see if you are still having a problem.

I had the same thing for a day last week and alerted CAD, too. And no, I never heard back. :roll:

IMHO... yes CAD is an attack site. I am more than annoyed with these ridicules ads. I would rather pay a yearly membership, than be spammed to death.
I've complained to IB more than once, even as recently as two weeks ago, and they have never had the decency to return my message. I've informed them of some of the glitches I experience, as well as I've had numerous members PM or email me in regards to having similar problems. They asked for feedback...yet they ignore you when you take the time to "offer help." :roll:
There is one ad in particular that has been tracking every site I've previously visited. If it was eBay, it pulls up an ad for me in regards to eBay. Once I looked up gold spot prices, and got lots of gold selling sites.
I generally have to wipe my hard drive clean and reboot back to factory once a year, and that is a major pain in the butt, as it takes a lot of hours to do. I did that last March, and since then all my issues seem to trace back to CAD. They are "moderate threats" maybe, but if you have any moderate threats from a site, you can also get a more serious threat. I use several securities, and have to clean once or twice a week, and I wipe all online activity clean every day....so some of this crap gets embeded.
I just recently been getting a threat warning in regards to this website. I don't know if it's from a recent new ad, or what. This is what my threat warning says;
My warning reads;
"Warning: Visiting this site may harm your computer!
The website at classadrivers.com contains elements from the site ifsjgbwiu398.in in which appears to host malware software that can harm your computer or otherwise operate without your consent."
I have to click on a box to [return to safety] or choose a box to proceed anyway as the risk.

Yep.
Firefox gives me the warning saying that this site is an attack site BUT can't give me any reason at all why that it is considered to BE one. Microshaft Innernut Exploder 8 gives no such warning. I HATE using MSIE for any reason due to the infinite security holes that a whole world full of asshats are just waiting to take advantage of. *grrrrr*

The security program that I have been using has stopped anything from happening to my system. I have it programmed to scan every day just to be on the safe side. It also prevents any unwanted pop ups from showing up. So far I have not had any noticeable increase in spam in my email. Of course, I receive enough already. :roll:

I'm on my Safari connection now and no issues. Basically Google was saying it's a possible attack site but that over the last 90 days nothing malicious has come from here. It said something about 3rd partys being able to leave something without anyones knowledge until the ***** hits the fan.
Quick Edit, now back on a regular computer with Firefox and it's now saying that 3 times over the last 90 days something malicious has been downloaded onto computers without the user's consent from this site. This morning it was nothing had happened over the last 90 days........

What is an attack site? Is that where they have lots of spyware and stuff?
I use IE, and I just type CAD from my favorites and pulls up the site. I have noticed that I get a lot of junk mail. People needing money, or some women from no-telling where wanting something. :hellno:
All the links we have, are those full of spyware, malware and what not? Is that why we've been having trouble?
