    I have anti-virus software but it doesn't show any problems. Try shutting right down and re-starting?

    Maybe someone who uses the same anit-virus software can also give it a go if they spot this thread.

    Davetommo, I use BT and have the mcafee software loaded. Have tried the website and I don't get the warning. I'm using Windows 10 with the latest updates. From looking at the east hants site I think the problem is that the mcafee robots are seeing the logon
    setup they have and are mis reading it as a phishing attempt. As with all websites you should only give any details that you are comfortable with and avoid any bank details. Alternatively phone an officer of the Centre to book a rally.

    I have just tried it and get the same message. McAfee looks at the code behind each web page and the East Hampshire site clearly has some code that appears to be suspicious in that it matches some phishing code. It may be worth contacting East Hampshire centre to let them know of the problem so that they can resolve it.

    I have mailed the centre and no reply, may be they dont read e-mails or are not interested..

    I can confirm that East Hants do reply to emails. Its possibly that the webmaster has been away on a rally and will reply asap.

    The address on the website (and the one I've always had a reply from) is mail@easthantscentre.org.uk

    I'm sure they would appreciate you getting in touch.

    Never had a problem. Registered with them and booked a rally for this year. Suggest you contact the secretary using the details in the club handbook.
