ESET thinks there is a threat in the 5 Scatter thread.

[ladyhawke]

Opened up the 5 Scatter thread - first page - and a JPG page was blocked, as follows.

www(dot)casino-galore.com/spinpalacecashville5scatter.jpg

The actual ESET error msg was "Blocked by PUA blacklist".

For those who don't use ESET, a PUA is defined as: "A potentially unwanted application (PUA) is a program that contains adware, installs toolbars or has other unclear objectives."

This error msg only appears on Page 1 of the thread, not on any other page that I have randomly selected, including the last. I don't go into this thread very often, but I do not remember ever seeing the msg before.

Anyone have any ideas?

somebody has reported to ESET about casino-galore.com as a harmful domain. we 've "suffered" similar issue (casinomeister.com.domain) but just we requested to ESET to check and we were removed from the "dark"side in some hours.

My apologies, but I lost track of this thread, and have just seen your reply.

I really like ESET, but they do seem to be anti-gambling, blocking domains right, left and centre. It makes me wonder if they simply act on one complaint - sending that domain over to the 'dark side', - or if they have a more sophisticated algorithm to identify what they classify as problematic gambling sites.

It does seem to be a one-complaint and you're out type of strategy, though.
