Can you be a little more specific? And how does one get a virus from a picture?

No one else has reported any problems so flamehead asked for some specifics about which photos allegedly caused you problems? If you dont' tell us what can we do?

Exactly, just specify which picture is causing a problem and Tinky will be sure to fix it.

Hold on there, pal...

1. We can't tell which picture has a "virus" if you don't tell us which picture. We're not going to go through all those pictures to find out which one because you suspect there is a virus.

2. Those pictures are hosted elsewhere so if there's a virus, it's their problem. We simply are able to view the picture on the forum.

3. If you weren't attempting to download one of those pictures, how did you receive the "virus" in question?

4. Why don't you give us more details about the "virus" so we might be able to narrow down the problem?

5. Have you ever heard of spyware? That stuff downloads viruses to your computer while you're viewing completely inoccuous sites leading you believe that you got the virus from viewing that thread.

So until you provide us with more info, we can't do jack for you. And if you don't like the site admins because you didn't give enough detail about your problem, then you might want to reconsider your approach to the problem.

Consider this a warning. Do not come whining to the mods about a problem, not provide us details, and then bitch about us when we can't help you.

From one "non-player" to another, I don't think so.
