It appears that porn sites have taken over the travel blog section. Examples: "Women encourage men to jerk off" (How supportive of them) "Free clips of teenagers" (We'll assume they're 18/19 at least)
"Catriona rowntree sex" Shrug I don't know what this is but it sure sounds kinky.

Not that I have any problems with shortcuts to porn sites, but it appears that they don't have anything to do with travel and therefore are in the wrong place. Are these just getting by sensors, are they not to be blocked, or is there at least a special section of the site for these for after the kids go to bed? Confused

Hope you did not click on them by mistake...I did and was overloaded with virus..something downloaded automatically. So bad that it totally corrupted the system. Even after cleaning and reloading the software my system has not been the same.

Oh no! Even more reason they should be removed. I'm sorry that happened to you. I'll be extra careful not to; I'm on a gov't computer right now. Man would that be tough to explain.

Oh, BTW Catriona Rowntree is a person, so I learned! What's more she hosts a travel show of some sort, and so I guess that link fits to be posted on BnA, provided it's not a virus.

No, really, who do we have to talk to to get them removed, or whose attention to we draw them to? I think it makes the BnA image a little (more?)questionable. Wink

I've alerted the proper authorities to the problem -- help should be along shortly. Smile

Pretty sure we caught them all this afternoon. If anyone spots another though, let us know and we'll zap it. Good timing on their part to hammer us when most of us were away from the computer for the long w'end.

I just bought a new Mac and to be honest I'm scared to write in my Boots Blog...tell me I'm just being paranoid and I have nothing to worry about my blog being corrupted.

Your blog will not be corrupted. None of the blogs were corrupted with regards to this message. There were simply a lot of new blogs that were created by bad people. We've axed those and you'll be fine to post to your blog.
