Quote - I do have to agree with MKeyes that a warning is not too much to ask for, and I'd go so far as to put such a warning on EVERY page a user might access.  Having this happen with the same java trojan two times in a few days, well, I hope the site admin team is learning from this experience and will be a little more proactive about alerting users to this kind of thing in the future.  While I'm pretty jaded and cynical - I would never ever ever run an installer prompted by any website's content - a lot of people trust Renderosity completely.  I imagine that trust has been harmed greatly over the past week.

Would it be so hard to put a warning banner at the top of any page, in this kind of event?  Not like it would have to replace the marketplace advertisements at the top of every page (nobody minds those after all), maybe a red link beneath the random market banners.

Okay, got that...

so... your complaint is that the website doesnt have a little red mesege at the top of the screen on every link that says " hey! dont be here! because there's a virus!"

or at least any msg for that matter that is a warning... so... if it is not there... and the rendo controlers arent putting it there... but you want them to... like really badly... what do you think you should do? spam an angry note on one out of a thousand blogs? or msg them and say "hey perhaps you could put a msg up there ot let those just coming on know about the virus."

It is simply straight communication. If something is not working for you... an expectation not being met... then the workable thing is to let them know about it. Theyre not going ot know what your frustrated about if you dont say it to them or if you just spam it behind their backs. right?

i would bet that MKeyes got hit with the virus just as the rendo controlers found out about it. so then when she complains that they didnt do anything before hand, she's basically saying "you didnt foresee this and you didnt let me know." because truely, at that time it was non-existant to the rendo controlers when she got the virus... and if fate made it so that the only way the rendo masters would know about this virus was through MKeyes, then they would still be clueless about it because from what ive seen she hasnt done anything but cause more stress on the blog sheet. correct?
