I use FF and have Norton and I received the same message today.  I used survey scout instead and no problem.

I got that too. Well, as long as everyone has their active antivirus when doing ptc, they should be fine.

I use Firefox and normally don't have any problems, although today in doing the Paid to Click, when I clicked on part "b" to redeem my .15, Firefox gave me a warning page about the advertisement. I've only seen that warning once before when I clicked on the Home Money Biz sponsor, which I don't click on anymore. I usually click on the WorldWide Lotto one and don't have any problems.

As far as there being issues with the daily surveys, it sounds like most the complaints are coming from those of you who use Google Chrome, so maybe it's a browser issue and you need to use a different browser.  :dontknow:

I use Fire Fox and got the same warning everyone else is talking about when clicking on Home Money Biz. I still got credited the $0.15.

I use Internet Explorer and I didn't get any warnings on the paid to click page but I got a blank page instead of the fusion toolbar page.  Everything was normal and I received credit.  I haven't tried any of the surveys yet.
I have McAfee not Norton.  I just tried the surveys and they all worked alright but were slow to come up.

The warning is back.  Not only did I get it on the Paid to Click, but also got it on the ad page that the Daily Email linked to.
Be careful...no  need to take any chances ..a few coins is not worth risking a virus on your computer..just think of all the money you will be out if you do get attacked...

Yeah thanks for letting us know. I don't think that I'm getting the warning and often times they will warn about anything that looks like a warning. I don't click that one anymore cause I've gotten phone calls in the past about it. Not sure if that was why because I didn't put any additional info  :dontknow:
