I don't know if anyone else has been experiencing this, but my anti-virus and firewalls have been warning me from visiting the Benarus website saying that it is spreading malicious code and viruses. I tried again today and Google actually redirected me and warned me not to go on the page. Just wondering what might be going on and if maybe someone's hacking the site? |

I've experienced this problem. My PC picked up the System Check Virus on Thursday from the site.  Last edited on Sun Feb 5th, 2012 07:27 am by Kooda |

something is targeting our site and has found a vulnerability to keep shoving there bad code onto my pages to get google to keep flagging the site. I had removed the bad code last week, checked the page permissions, upgraded the wordpress, etc. all was good. Now the code is back and so is the google warnings. We are working on this right now to track down the bad code, destroy it, and secure whatever vulnerabilities are letting it in. I use godaddy.com for hosting and wordpress for the blog, both are top quality web products... this just shows you that no one is safe from being targeted by malicious attacks. Someone asked me about buying safety, when you click to purchase a watch on our website it takes you to PayPals website to make the purchase. Benarus does not collect any payment information, it is all done by paypal. |

Most of this is Google being hyper sensitive. I can view my site and images just fine on my version of Safari and Firefox. Chrome is going to be over sensitive because it is linked to Google. I have just subscribed to this site to help me out as well... http://sucuri.net/ |

Steve, don't know if this helps, but I tried surfing to your site, ignoring Google's warning, and my computer's anti-virus (Norton) said they blocked a blackhole toolkit attack. Just FYI. |

The virus was on the worpress news blog. Wordpress is open source and has vulnerabilities. I have hired a new security team thus morning and they have removed the bad code. Google will continue to show the warning on the pages until they recheck the site themselves. I have submitted the request for the Google review. It may take a day or so until all the warning signs will be removed. |

I have to pass on this info because this company does a good job of quickly removing the virus and communicating with me about what they are finding and doing... http://sucuri.net/ I believe all of the malicious code has been removed now, but we will still have the warning signs on the website until Google performs a site review, then they will remove the warning signs. |

Please refresh your browser (or clear cache) and let me know if you still see the warning sign. I don't see it anymore on my computer and I downloaded Google Chrome and it is not showing me the warning either. I need to know if others are still seeing the warning sign?? |

Hey there Steve, I'm sure you had a heck of a day w/the "warning" issue to the website...it appears to be resolved, I'm not seeing it any further...way to quickly correct the problem. Just wanted to give you some feedback as requested. Have a good one & thanks for the recently sent Megs, really superb...I'm quite surprised how cool the Meg 500 looks & wears up close, very nice piece. As for my Ti Meg 4, also a very sweet piece, had some issues w/the lug bars & screws when trying to change into the rubber strap. I'll send you a separate email. Thanks again brutha. Kindly, -T-  |

Cool, thanks for letting me know! Some of the Megs have too much thread locker glue on the screws and they are too tight and might break when trying to get them off. I have included extra bars and I can send more upon request. I have also been testing some of them before shipping them out and I have replaced a few prior to shipping. I will try and do more testing on the watches here before shipping them out. |

Another thing who make me glad that I brutally kicked my PC out for a Mac... Bill Gates's toasters are a virus magnets. |

I am also on a mac. Everything is restored and Google has reviewed the site and taken down the warning signs. Sucuri.net now monitors the site activity every 3 hours. |
