so it is the ads that are being blocked, not the mediafire page itself

Yeah, is not Dave's page itself.
It's Mediafire that has some advertising.


My blockers take care of some of them. But the Second Life windows slips and opens always along with Mediafire.

Same here. Not always, but more than half the time

And Yes, I want to leave this page!

Used to be you only had to close the extra ad window pop-up, but now you have to say that yes you are sure you meant to close it. Pretty soon, there will be another window saying 'But are you really, REALLY sure you want to leave this page?'

LOL

I'm guessing its reaction to some nasty advertising.
Many of those ads have redirecting links or they instigate malware downloads.
Another reason why "ad-blocking" is necessary rather than trying to block connections.

Tell your Library to install ad-block software first...then the anti-malare software won't have to work so hard.

I'm actually going to send a letter to mediafire telling them that there are recent issues.
Have them pay more attention to the advertisers.

Got the 'Blocked' message again on the same kits
as well as a few others
may have to use the link on your site Dave to get them another day when I have time
Or find a place I can take my Tower and see if I can get them on it

Getting the Library to 'Fix' the problem will take YEARS!!!
They only just 'Updated the PC's to 7Pro from xp AFTER 8 was out!!!
they will say, since Some clear it is NOT their problem!!!
The fix will be MUCH faster from your end!!!

Also, I was kicked out last July and banned till this past Jan as they said for copying Videos
Both Optical drives were already Down on the tower BEFORE that!
(HP p7 1423 with a 'Code 17' Error on them Missing--corrupt info within the Registry)
And YES same error when I bought an External DVD drive!!!

At least Most models download, And I am Not the only one with the Blocked access

I have to be blunt...
just telling me that you had a problem downloading a file or getting to a page isn't helpful
without proof, evidence of the occurance, or facts to help diagnose the problem.


I've had a couple of reports recently of people trying to access a Koolwheelz download
and when they are clicking on a Model subject, they are blocked from getting to the mediafire download page.
(The page that actually has the download link for the model PDF)

This appears to be an issue with security software blocking access to sites for some specific reason.
Like Public Library computers blocking access to various Internet locations and activities.

If this occurs, and you are blocked in way getting to any part of my website
or blocked trying to access a model file (download), please let me know.

Also, if you experience any sort of warning of malicious activity or content
from any part of my website or with any download, please let me know.

Please keep in mind, I require screengrabs of the warnings/blocks.
Please instantly take a screengrab(capture) of whatever you see and send it to me.
I am trying to report these issues to mediafire, but they are requesting more specific information
along with details of the operating system and related software to recreate the instance.



...
How to ScreenGrab-Capture-Print Screen instructions here:
http://www.papermodelers.com/forum/642310-post8.html


If you can't screengrab and save the image (because you are on a public computer)
try taking out your phone and photographing the screen.
Do your best to take a full screen clear image.

I want to try to get my Tower on-line to try downloading the models on her, but.....
1 Library does not allow me to bring it anymore(Likely why I was banned last year)
and 2 even if I could bring it here, I would get the same blocked message thru their wireless!!!

I am trying to get a friend to let me take it to his house, but he is not home that often


I do not have a full 2 hour time allotment today (they close at 5)
so can not install a photo editor and do not believe I have a portable one

the prtscn (Print Screen)button will copy the displayed paid, but I still need a way to save the picture!!!!

I have a few correct software on my tower, but library PCs are limited on ANYTHING they can have
