    When I first mentioned this problem with my webperson, he made a wild guess that it might be because of the PayPal link on my Contact Us page. I didn't really need that link (if someone wants to make a purchase they go thru my Cart) so I took it out.

    I've been researching this MS phishing filter thing. Check this out, especially paragraph 5. Not sure if it was the cause but glad I removed that PayPal link.

      ok now I have to check for my site... how do I do that? I don't have IE7 and it won't install on my retro OS...

      anyone care to check for me...

      I say you call a lawyer and get a check from MS... this sounds like total crap...

        Actually the site gave me the phishing MS info in Firefox, too. So you may try it with Firefox (but at home I'll try your website with IE7 then).

            I've got IE7 with the antiphishing filters set on automatic - didn't know it until this thread.
            No warnings on your website, Kris

                Could you check mine Daniel??

                Go to my homepage, then click on my Contact Us page.

                I've emailed PayPal about this, we'll see what they have to say ..

                  Joe,

                  I checked both in FF and IE7 (w/ phishing filter on) and no sign of a "phishing note" or whatsoever. They must have removed your site.

                    Joe,

                    Yet I have to tell you that the javascripts opening your image windows are a bit outdated (5 or 6 years back from now).
                    Still nice content - cheers!

                    Gai...

                        yes I was going to say th scripts are a bit old, and most SE don't want you to have more than 2 on any page... but that's way down their list of cares...

                        and they are useful scripts... like the pre-load image script...

                          Sorry Joe, I didn't see your post until late (I usually check the forum once a day at work - when i should be working). I had actually checked your website when i first stumbled across this thread - no threats detected, by either IE7 or my antivirus software.
