I use Avast Antivirus and it hates links to the most recent results and anything else with "members.quixnet" in the address.
I expect this is a false positive, but hopefully it gets fixed at some point. Anybody else have the same problem?
Links blocked, virus?

Re: Links blocked, virus?
I had to block Avast's web and network shields to view the results. At first, I thought it was something wrong with the site or results itself, but realized that Avast was blocking the URL from loading after sending Rick a PM about it.

Re: Links blocked, virus?
Can't imagine why quixnet.net should be blocked. Is there some issue with them as a provider?

No workee me either. Used to. Either Avast did an evil upgrade or something has changed at the site end.
