Just a quick heads up..

I sent the link for this site (http://www.subsonic.org/pages/index.jsp) to a mate as I am using it and think its great but when he went to look at the subsonic site at work there web filtering system says this site is malware or has a virus.

The full message was

Access to this page or document is blocked
http://www.subsonic.org/pages/index.jsp

The page or document you are trying to access is infected with a Virus or Malware

Block Reason: Malware Content Detected (text/html)

Malware Name: Phishing

Malware Category: Heuristics_Malware


Not sure if there is anything you can do to avoid this happening but thought it worth posting so you are aware.

Obviously not true, I think, seeing as he visited it from work, the paypal button on the site for donations most likely flagged it as phishing with his companies security software.

ahh
