Learningguru Ad, served by Hackforums.net

Maybe it's just AVG being over zealous, but it kicks in with a webshield alert of a Trojan on that ad.
Yes not only AVG but many AV give an alert for this website.
It will tell something about a tracking administrator cookies. Well it is nothing important. Shutdown the AVG shield because it will block many clear website.

they are just false positive alerts , nothing important ! Dont trust them cause they catch scripts like a trojan .
Yeah, I appreciate that they MAY be false positives, and for that reason I posted this as maybe it was AVG being over zealous, however it's not a good enough reason to turn off any feature of an Internet Security Suite, this is the exact reason I bought it for.

I'm not saying the AVG is wrong, nor am I saying the AD is clean, until verification can be provided either way, all the features of my AV stay switched on.

All I'm doing is alerting people to the fact that one of the ads is causing my/some AV's to display a warning, those warnings are there for a reason, disabling this function of your AV puts you at a higher risk of infection, regardless of how many false positives it gives.
So what are you trying to say to us? What do you want us to do? Delete the ads? Fix your AVG?
