This discussion came up in the chatroom a while back, actually. Apparently it's mostly because of a file a KonTek user uploaded a while back.

Honestly, you could cut "SiteAdvisor" from that and still have it be correct.

Hm.  Thats strange.  Maybe something Deezer wants to look into if he hasn't fixed it already.

The only ways to "fix" it I believe are to either remove all links to kontek.net (bad for business) or to have the offending files removed from the Phucked Archive (bad for the purpose of that site).

Very true.  If it were my site, I would just remove the links.  But it's really not up to me.

Here's the thing, I didn't even know/care that TMK is listed on the McAfee danger site page. If I didn't see this, I still wouldn't know/care. Even after this, I don't care. I'm pretty sure the same can be said about the vast majority of the people who have visited TMK.

Hell, I didn't even know that McAfee danger site even existed.

I don't think I can visit TMK anymore.

McAfee sucks. My mom got stuck with their antivirus software preinstalled on one computer, and it wouldn't let her close it or uninstall it, and randomly replaced image files with a giant grainy McAfee logo whenever she tried to go online.

Funny, I've got McAfee, and it has yet to screw my computer up. Of course, after I post this and check I'm bound to find out it's done irreparable damage behind the scenes, but whatev.

I totally read that as "miraculous" website.

I believe you have some hidden pro-TMK agenda.

At first sight, I thought McAfee was the name of a really screwed up school in my area.

Anyway, who cares?
