"We will dance again" thread - major virus warnings & issues

Hi Mumsnet

I have been trying this evening to read the We will dance again thread.

Within seconds of opening the thread I am getting all sorts of virus warnings, redirections to other pages etc.

I'm very offended - not by this site - but that I am not allowed to read in peace and quiet in my own home about the slaughter and desecration of innocents last year.

I've attached some of the redirections & virus warnings.

I dont like being threatened like this.

Thank you for your continued help to ensure that this is a safe place where women can post about what matters to them.

Think this might be your phone/computer problem as I was just reading that thread and had no problems.

Yeah, it’s fine for me too.

What device are you using?
Have you read this?
https://malwaretips.com/blogs/neetoutoo/
How often do you attempt to clean your device? e.g. on a PC using CCleaner, Spybot S&D, malwarebytes, etc
It's almost certainly your device that needs malware removing.

Yep it's fine for me too.
Do you have a up-to-date firewall on your device ?

Hi OP

None of the links mentioned in the AVG screenshots are about Mumsnet - and we can't see Mumsnet in your open tabs for 'file is ready to download' screenshot.

Can you please send a screen recording to contactus@mumsnet.com so that we can take a look? We'd need to be able to see you opening the thread and scrolling through it (and then what follows).
