    Question McAfee found potential security risks with the forum

    I wonder why site advisor marks the forum as high risk:

    avinashtech.net | McAfee SiteAdvisor Software

    Maybe avi should do something about that, I guess some users would be scared if their security software tells them they are visiting a possibly dangerous site (even if we know that's not true ) and specially because mcafee doesn't consider the blog a risk:

    Thats bad. It should be an fp and resolved soon or avi better contact them. I had some rating problems with kaspersky for my forums but now they fixed and it gets a green.

    Thank you Cosme for pointing that out. Even though there was a small security vulnerability of the vBulletin software itself, which was patched yesterday, I would check it again to see if anything else needs to be looked into.

    I guess the mcafee guys need plenty of time to change the status because it's still the same (high risk).
