Wrecking Crew Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 FYI, happened mid-day today -- My work has blocked DCS Forums as a Malicious Site with a McAfee Security Rating = Red. "The website you are trying to access is not available ... because it falls under a McAfee SiteAdvisor blocked site category." WC Visit the Hollo Pointe DCS World server -- an open server with a variety of COOP & H2H missions including Combined Arms.

TimeKilla Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 Is there not way to contact McAfee to have it unblocked? :joystick: YouTube :pilotfly: TimeKilla on Flight Sims over at YouTube.
Captain Orso Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 I don't know if this was ever resolved, but it's now 2016 and forum.eagle.ru is still listed as dangerous by McAfee.

Captain Orso Posted March 14, 2016 Posted March 14, 2016 mmmmnyeah, no comment about John McAfee. I don't know exactly since when, but my last post about this was on Feb. 8, 2016 and today McAfee no longer evaluates eagle.ru as dangerous!! Whoever is responsible for this, many thanks :thumbup: When you hit the wrong button on take-off System Specs.

Yurgon Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 McAfee... wasn't that the guy who started shooting at cops and then apologized while having a friendly smoke with them - saying something along the lines of "I thought it was my ex-wife --who wouldn't start shooting then?" Dunno, but I wouldn't install anything with his name on my computer. And I'd probably get on IT department's nerves unless they switched to another product in my company as well. :D

Back then I disliked them less than Norton so I didn't mind so much. I've had bad run in's with both... So did my high school, their Norton Business "Firewall" was the equivalent of trying to block the invading viking army with a cigarette lighter..

piXel496 Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 Probably was because HTTP Websites will be labeled as “Unsafe” in the near future. But will this forum be HTTPS? . old stuff I made
Yurgon Posted August 27, 2016 Posted August 27, 2016 The last place I worked in IT was using McAfee but that has been many years ago now. Back then I disliked them less than Norton so I didn't mind so much. I can't say I like any antivirus software. Guess it's the "lesser of many evils" approach that one has to take. ;) Probably was because HTTP Websites will be labeled as “Unsafe” in the near future. But will this forum be HTTPS? I've switched a few sites to HTTPS since Let's Encrypt went into public beta and it was accepted by all major browsers (via some kind of cross-signing with a pre-existing CA or some such) and have received zero problem reports so far. Nowadays HTTPS really shouldn't be a problem at all.
Yurgon Posted August 29, 2016 Posted August 29, 2016 And now the forum seems to have switched to mandatory HTTPS using Let's Encrypt. :thumbup: Thanks a lot admins, very good move IMO. :thumbup:
piXel496 Posted August 30, 2016 Posted August 30, 2016 yes, good to see the DCS sites became HTTPS. (will help ranking in google aswell) :thumbup: old stuff I made
