Just a warning about FRF...

[02RangerXLT]

Went to go read a thread on Ford Ranger Forums today, and got this message:

Anyone else seen this message? Figured I should warn anyone going on there.

Note to self, stay at the Ranger Station...

I checked it out too and there was a note before you open the site that said
'This site may harm your computer'. So I did not got into the site. I have McAfee antivirus protection and it has kept my computer safe.

TRS is by far the superior forum, anyway.

That's not the point of this post folks, you don't need to post any ANTI-"So-and-so's forum" stuff in here, this is purely a thread to warn people about the crap that is on their server.

I've been on FRF for a while and even today, they are having issues with Google. The site is working just fine I've been on it all day with no issues. Tom is trying to figure out what's happening.

x2 Billy. someone reported the site as having malicious software. Needless to say, that forum is not bad by any means.

Yes, TRS has a lot more information, but that does not mean that FRF is a bad forum. We all serve a common goal, and that is to enjoy/ modify/ help each-other out with Ford Rangers/ Explorers.

LOL.

Being pro-TRS doesn't make me anti anything.

i asked for that site to delete my account no answer!!!!!!!!
it seems that the malware they were using was loading a cookie to try and capture passwords from people i got in massive crap at work by my boss and the web guys
the web guys think the site was looking for credit card numbers and bank passwords i will never go back to that site again. i have never had that problem here
the owner is a scammer just search his name on the internet
the web guys said the site owner is a known scammer and gave me these links

I doubt that's the case. Don't forget, we had a virus on TRS if I remember correctly. Any website is suseptable to infection, it's up to YOU to protect yourself from it not the sites owner.
