Since the past week when I go on TCS I get a pop-up from Mcafee Security saying this is an unsecure and high risk site. Has anyone else had this problem?

Thanks. Maybe I should change my browser, that might be the problem.

The site shows as secure to me, haven't had issues with this site in particular but I have had other sites that are normally secure say that they're unsecure and my anti-virus won't let me on the site but I'll try again later and it works and shows it's secure. Not sure what causes that, but I use Chrome and haven't had any issues with this site so far.

I initially had a issue with browser Duck Duck Go. The message to me was that browser didn't Support this site. So I changed to Firefox . Mow no issues. I use AVG antivirus .

If it does happen again, you can go into McAfee and put this site as an exception. This will allow this site to come up freely.
I have Avast, so I'm not sure the steps to do it. But for some reason I was getting the same error with Steam. Did this and have no further problems.

Yes, this is still happening, I was able to block the fake Mcafee site by finding this problem mentioned on their real actual site; they give details how to stop this scam. They wan't our details! I am now getting no end of other sites attacking my browser when I open the cate site.
