Not sure if this has been mentioned before, but every time i try to click on the last page in the pictures of decently modified motors, it keeps throwing it out and telling me something in there is hosting malware. Might no be anything, and i just have a very sensitive anti malware set up, but thought i would let you know

I get the same thing - being a bit of a computer numpty I'm not sure if it's safe to proceed so backed out from the page, just in case!

We get these false alarms every once in a while when someone has embedded an image that is hosted on a server which has found it's way on to google's blacklist. There is no danger to anyone on PistonHeads, but I have changed the image to a link to stop it irritating people.
