I just opened the Count to 10000 part 77 thread and Malwarebytes informed me it had just blocked access to a Blacklisted site.

The IP of this site is 77.222.56.62 located in the Russian Federation.

A Google search indicates that the site is probably harmless but I'm wondering why it came up.

Is anyone posting on that thread using it to host pictures or a signature or is something more devious involved ?

I just double checked all of my posts. They are all from US sites. Most of us hot post. We find the picture then link directly to the picture's location. It is possible that someone without a good anti-virus program hot posted a picture. But I am not getting the same warning.
