I just took a peek and it was OK. Usually it helps if we know Mac or PC so others may help check. Gary

I'm getting a warning with Avast. I'm a PC running IE. Hopefully the website gurus will figure this out.

A lot of time this is due to an offsite ad server serving a malicious ad. The MOA site is now on at least one major Internet blacklist (aka the one used at my place of employment). This is not going to be fun to clean up.
EDIT - Nice, looks like it is already unblacklisted

It still looks OK here. It would be interesting to see if the notifications on this, for the both of you, went away with a cookie-history cleaning. Your computer could be retaining the "old" info. OMsame here. tricked it (so to speak) by using bmwmoa.org/forum.
