Title: McAfee Warning??
Post by: bob kaplan on October 21, 2010, 10:22:40 AM
My McAfee protection is giving me a red flag when i enter the Bachmann site.  Something about Bachmann sending out a great deal of spam...anyone else getting this??

I have been with the Bachmann forums for some time and have never seen any Spam. Check your McAfee settings.
Once is a great while I use to see a Spam message  in one or two forums but not for a while.
Now, do you mean Spam in the forum or Bachmann related Spam in your email address?
I have never received any Bachmann related Spam in any of my email addresses.

My McAfee av recently expired but it had never given me any warnings about the Bachmann site. I know the warning box you're talking about. And I almost never get any spam.

Bob, it is not that Bachmann sends out Spam, but I can go to your profile and see that your email address is nys-----@aol.com.  You need to go to your profile and change it so your email address is not public.

Good, you now have a hidden email address.  I know this would not help as far as McAfee, but it keep other from getting you email address.  I will go along with Rich.  Check your McAfee settings because you may get this if you signed up for any forum.

Mcafee site advisor is back to green!!!!

I have never had that happen before, I guess some one reported spam to Mcafee and they turned it red.

I guess someone or Mr B mann talked with Mcafee to clear it up.

Any way I enjoy this discussion board and did not want to stop visiting it.  :)
