I was able to access this site from work earlier but recently my organization decided to implement McAfee Webwasher. Since then, I am able to access the homepage but when I click any forum discussions, webwasher blocks it. When I contacted my IT support they told me that webwasher is raising alert (which probably is a false alert) Heuristic.BehavesLike.JS.Suspicious.A. But they can not do any thing about it because they can not allow any site unrestricted (which I can understand) and this issue needs to be fixed by McAfee. I have raised a ticket with McAfee also via trustedsource.org (ticket id 391383) but no luck yet. As its issue with Webwasher, I think wherever this product is being used, mqseries.net is blocked.
Site admins, you may want to take this up with McAfee or review the site code to see what may be causing this false alert. |

I'm not all that familiar with McAfee's product; but nearly all of that ilk provide an option to declare a website as 'trusted.'

| my tech support response it that they are not blocking it explicitly. Its something on the forum page code that's trigging an alert in Webwasher and they agree that it may be a false alert. But they are not willing to simply override all checking on this website and I understand their view point. They are saying either the code needs to be cleaned of anything suspicious or McAfee needs to fix their threat detection logic. |

McAfee needs to fix their software, or at least identify what is having an issue with on this site.
Norton has no issues whatsoever with mqseries.net.
