I was browsing McM and hit a random thread. I clicked on it and a nice avast "Threat has been detected" hit me. The URL in question was a.pomf.cat (never heard of it). So I click another same thing. It seems to only be appearing on certain threads. I dont know if this is McMs fault but.... Thought I would make it known

High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.

pomf.cat is an image hosting site.
Many members use it to host images for their threads, since imgur has us blocked.

Here's s tip: Don't use avast. :tup:

Tip: Avast is a good antivirus!

Also, Why would avast claim that pomf.cat was a URL:Malware if it wasn't. Avast is usually pretty good at this....
